SPB wished Rahman very sensitively. ."Rahman and I share a bond.. It's Rahman's 
father Sekar who introduced me in Malayalam.. When I sang the first song 
"Kaadhal Rojavae" for Rahman, he said 'Sir, Here there are many big people.. I 
can survive in this field only for some 5 years, after that I've to pack my 
things'.. After 5 years, I sang again in his music.. Then he laughed & said 'I 
think God has given me 5 more years of grace period'.. And recently when I sang 
in his music, he said 'I think God is extending my grace period'.. He is a 
simple man who never takes victory to his head.. Even if anyone asks him a 
tricky question, he escapes the question without hurting or underrating 
anyone.. Rahman, U should live for many years and bring pride to Indian 
Music".. Rahman nodded his head seeing the screen as soon as SPB said this..

SPB lauds Rahman 
AR Rahman's humility has won praise from one and all, including the great S P 
Balasubramaniam. The ace singer recently said,"Rahman is born with so much of 
humility. He doesn't differentiate between singers and gives all singers the 
same amount of respect. More importantly, he does not discourage a new 
singer."Narrating an incident to explain Rahman's humility, the singer said, 
"When I met Rahman initially, he said, 'I don't know how long I will last in an 
industry where there are great jambavans. I will last for five years at the 
most.' "Then, I met him five years later and he said God has given me five more 
years. Now, it's been 20 years and he still rules. He's a good human being and 
a great composer," he added.
