(pre - script :- 1) This particular piece of crap is purely based on individual perception about music and the concerned musician. Demeaning any other person/star of the same field is not intended at all. happy reading
2) as correctly said by one of my friends, rahman k bare main jitna likho , kam hai!:) )
Present is incomplete without history! So, .. This talented guy was born in madras in a very ordinary Telugu family, Dilip Kumar, they called him! The things started going wrong when his father died, when he was just 9 years old, and this wasn't the end of bad things happening to him but, a trigger to the cascade of unwilling things in his life. The whole of the family was shattered. But then one of his very dear friends told him to go to qadiri islam to get the rescue from his problems. This was the time when whole of this family accepted the muslim religion, this was the time when the family started to swipe away their problems, and this was the time Allah Rakha Rahman got his name, which has reached out to the glory now!
Since his childhood, he used to compose little tunes, but he got a stable status as a music director and composer only with the film Roja which was an unexpected hit!! its was 1992 (whoa! His experience altogether is nearly of my AGE!!) Well, enough of the history now!
Talking about the music of this mozart of madras, he has made an ideal combination of music and technology. its incredible!! no combination of 26 alphabets can really describe it!! Few of his compositions like kaise muzu tum mil gayi (Gajini), kahi toh hogi woh (Jtyjn), tu bin bataye (Rdb), tum ho paas mere (Rockstar) are so heavenly (( these songs need not to be the best of his compositions but at this time, state of mind is flashing these songs, differences in opinions, bound to be there)) that i feel like reaching to some other world listening them!!
Sitting on a resting chair, A. R. R.s play-list in the instru, ear-phones plugged in, and pleasure of heavens! perfect combo!! Let it be taal, swades, yuva, guru, jtyjn, rockstar and many many other films, his songs have got some power to touch your heart! One reason I managed to find out is, may be his music is so worth appreciation is because it directly comes from heart! No cutting, copying, pasting!! Very original (no offense to Bappi Da , ''king of ahem ahem'', Anu Malik, Pritam, and many more! ), crystal clear, just like a dew drop on a leaflet in early morning! Untouched and pure as the holy grail ...(jyada ho gaya, i know, but , bhavnao ko samjho!)
He has explored classical, western, jazz, r n b, pop, hip-hop, even rap, fusion in languages more than Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, English, French! What brilliance for a little group of neurons !! Experimentation that he does has increased his success rate. He composes for himself for his pleasure ans satisfaction 1st. But these risks have had turned back to him many a times ( I'm still trying to figure out the song 'jod jod jodiya', (guru) and few more like that! I mean, WHAT WAS THAT???) Anyways, but I fell contended by listening to his music, after all he is the only Indian with Grammy and Oscar! Wow!
Hats off to his simplicity (he is still having his home at Chennai, and not at chamak-dhamak city Mumbai), to his passion, to his love for music, to his mind-blasting creations! Rahman! Man, You Rock!! :) :p
