AR Rahman has spread the magic of his music and vocals across the globe. Be it in India or internationally, the maestro has given the music industry some gems. Now, in an interview with The Hindu, Rahman looked back at his journey and revealed the reason behind not moving to Mumbai when he was offered the chance to relocate from Chennai.
Highlighting the existence of the movie mafia, Rahman shared, I remember in 1994, a big producer from Andhra Pradesh said he’d give me a massive place in Banjara Hills if I moved out from Chennai. I just smiled at him. Later, when I found prominence up North, Subhash Ghai asked me to learn Hindi as people there love me and I should know the language. But that was the time of the underworld mafia culture in Mumbai, so I didn’t even consider it."
