It is unusual for musicians to figure
in such a list. But, the quality of
Rahman’s music is such that
he can raise the expectations of a
movie and play a pivotal role in its
opening. Big time producers and directors
wait for his dates. When he composes,
everyone falls in line. When he summons
directors to his studio at midnight,
they oblige. When he wants the music
rights, he gets them.
.When
he is fasting for Ramzan, directors wait. Those
who work with him once, seldom go to others. His
magic holds sway.
