From the house of A.R. Rehman…..
- 15.06.2004
There is one more music director getting shaped up from the Ace music director A.R. Rehman's House, for Tamil film Industry.
In the film 'Choclate' A.R. Rehman's sister Rehana had sung a beautiful (!)number 'Mala,Mala'. Now her next dimension is music director. She is scoring music for the film 'Machchi' while elaborating on this, She said…
"You all will expect from me a lot, because I am A.R. Rehman's Sister. You may equate me with him. But I would always like to maintain my separate identity as Rehana. I am very careful to see that nobody's style should influence me. I want to be myself and would like to be a creator of my own style. Because I was with Rehman all these days, even without my knowledge, his style would have made a dent on me. But soon I would like to take care that no one's style influences me.
"Now I have finished my musical score for 'Machchi'. Rehman is yet to listen to them. Only after he listens, I can say how I have faired." As she finished, we asked her opinion about IlayaRaja and A.R.Rehman; She quipped that both are genius. They consider Music as divine. They are dedicated to that extent was her final answer.
