Magan
- Dipak Koli
It seems like a long time since Sivaji songs were released,
however, they still generate frenzy among the music lovers.
Pronouncing a comeback of sorts in Tamil movies, Rahman proved
why he is still sought after with those songs. The maestro is
busy these days scoring tunes for the upcoming Vijay-Shriya
starrer ATM. Inside sources state that Rahman’s rip-roaring
music for ATM is sure to become a rage as soon as they are
released
Besides ATM, as it seems, there is an impressive line up of
movies that require the genius’rendition.
Of the only other two projects Rahman seems to be working on
in Tamil so far, producer Dhanu’s Sakkarakatti is progressing.
Rahman seems to have been bowled over by the plot and bought
additional time to spend on the score. Which means, soon
enough, yet another chartbuster is on the cards. Gowtham’s
mascot Harris is being replaced by Rahman for his next venture
titled Chennayil Oru Mazhaikkalam. Touted to be a musical
entertainer, this movie focuses on the life and times of an IT
professional, which means both stylish and very contemporary.
That apart, down South, if reliable sources are to be
believed, Rahman will score for the Pavan Kalyan starrer Puli
directed by S.J. Surya. Puli is also associated with some of
the bigwigs of the industry including Camera by renowned
cinematographer Ravi K Chandran.
Rahman’s major Hindi projects include the Aamir Khan – Asin
starrer Gajini directed by Murugadoss. He is also associated
with the epic movie Jodhaa Akbar, directed and produced by
Ashutosh Gowariker that stars Hrithik Roshan and Aishwarya Rai.
Rahman’s music for Jodhaa has raised the bar among his fans
and critics alike for the story revolves around the great
Mughal Emperor Akbar and his Hindu wife Jodhabai
On the cards is also Delhi 6, directed by Rakeysh Mehra whose
previous successful venture with Rahman include Rang De
Basanti that was also nominated for the Oscars. Besides,
Rahman is also talked to be scoring Yuvraaj produced by Anil
Kapoor and Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na directed by Abbas Tyrewala and
produced by Aamir Khan Productions and PVR Cinema.
On the whole, fans are in for a big treat the latter part of
this year, Rahman style.
