A. R. RAHMANI like music that is able to stir my soul. My music is a spiritual exercise
A. R. RAHMANMusic knows no barrier of age or culture. It isn’t about being politically correct or even making a statement. Music is what appeals to the ears and touches your soul.
A. R. RAHMANThat’s a sound design thing but then we wanted to do music that would not disturb it and at the same time drive it.
A. R. RAHMANMusic is language itself. It should not have any barriers of caste, creed, language or anything. Music is one, only cultures are different. Music is the language of languages. It is the ultimate mother of languages.

A. R. RAHMANThe music had to be rooted, and yet had to branch out, like the wild imagination of a child.
A. R. RAHMANRather than making money I believe in making people happy, all other things are secondary. Money isn’t important, creative satisfaction is.
A. R. RAHMANThere is only one of the two that can reside in our hearts, GOD or ego. If GOD is in ego is out.
A. R. RAHMANThe more you know the less you talk.
A. R. RAHMANMy biggest dream to connect people through music has come true. In a world where there are enough reasons to separate us, the Oscars have unified us.
A. R. RAHMANIf music wakes you up, makes you think, heals you…then, I guess the music is working.
