All your compositions be it for Hindi or Tamil films have an unmistakable Rahman stamp. Do you think this is an asset?
I have to admit that it is not deliberate but if it still exists, I take it as my identity. As long as my identity does not come in the way of my versatility I’m okay. There is a difference in being characteristic and in being typecast. So far, I think I’ve refrained from being typecast. |

Producers say that if you want to work with Rahman you should be able to do two things: park yourself in Chennai and be able to keep awake all night.
Look, I’m not forcing anyone to work with me but if I live in Chennai, that’s where they will have to come. About keeping awake, I am comfortable working in the nights but that does not mean that the filmmakers have to keep awake with me as well. Shyam Benegal did not, when I was composing Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose. He would be in the studios till midnight and then come next morning to listen to the compositions. But Subhash Ghai, because he is a music lover, wanted to wait and watch the creative process during Taal. So it’s their individual choice. |
