Oscar getting A.R.Rahman!

I can't just leave my page without writing about my favourite musician, A.R Rahman. I was thinking to write something about A.R.R for sometime now but my laziness delayed it. At least I should write about him now when the whole world is looking at A.R.R. I have always been a big fan of A.R.R’s music and his voice. Everybody knows that he is great musician who has taken Indian music to the next level. Apart from this common / known factor, there are some inspirations that I draw from him which I wish to write about in this post.

Yes, he is such a humble person and never show his excitement on any occasion whether it's happy moment or bad moments. Here are some, there was time when a lot of people criticized his music. I remember reading in a news paper, K.J Yesdus who criticized A.R.R's Vandhay madhram album that Rahman is not singing the Vandhay Madhram song lyrics in correct timing. At the same time many a Indian have drawn such patriotism whenever they heard this song specially with his high pitched voice.

Even Illyaraja has criticized Rahman. I read somewhere that "Olyipethallam Isai Alla" (Not sure Illayraja is mentioned Rahman here). If so, then Illayraja has come to know about A.R.R after the world recognizing him as a world music director! But A.R.R has never replied to any comments that have been passed on him and his music.

Again in the news paper I read somewhere that S.P.B had commented saying, A.R.Rahman had collapsed shurthi of songs. (Not sure whether S.P.B really said it as I just read in a news paper). If its true then S.P.B must now know how big A.R.R is

That’s the good thing which I always want to learn from A.R that he never makes any loose talk. On the contrary he never hesitates to praise other musician like Yuvan Shankar Raja and others who made good music. I wonder if A.R.R has got angry for anything at all in life. Because he is always humble, a man with few words and a smiling face. Whenever I see him on the television I can see the "Shanthi" in his face!

He is also a unique music director as he knows what kind of music north Indian people and south Indian people love. According to that he makes the music. Though Illayaraja is also a legend in his own way, he could not do what A.R.R does. In fact, I used to hear some Hindi songs of A.R.R though I don’t know Hindi completely. As the saying goes, which is so true, “Music has no language barrier?”

According to me A.R Rahman is not just a Music director! There is no exaggeration, in calling him a role model of mine. I would like to learn those good qualities from him!

Jai Ho A.R.R
