A.R. Rahman (born October 10, 1966) is a multi-instrumentalist, singer-songwriter and India’s finest and most prominent film composer, hailing from Maras, Tamil Nadu, India.

Originally known by the name A.S. Dileep Kumar, Rahman was introduced to music at a young age by his father, a successful film musician and conductor. At age four Rahman started to learn classical piano, however by his teens had mastered the keyboard, harmonium, guitar and had a vested interest in synthesisers. By age 11 Rahman was playing in the orchestra of M.K. Arjunan, followed by orchestras of M.S. Viswanathan and Ramsh Naidu, and later earned a scholarship from Trinity College of Music in London, UK. The musician soon found a job as a session musician for film soundtracks, however before long found the process tedious and moved onto commercial jingles.

Following his conversion to Islam in 1989, A.S. Dileep Kumar changed his name to Allah Rakha Rahman i.e. A.R. Rahman. Also in 1989, following a successful advertisement jungle for Leo Coffee, Rahman was introduced to Mani Ratnam, who enlisted the musician’s help with the score for K. Balachander’s 1992 film “Roja”. The soundtrack proved to be a colourful and genre expanding score that earned the composer three awards for Best Music Director at the National Film Awards.

In 1993 Rahman scored the soundtracks for six films, and increased his workload to nine the year after. Rahman notably crafted the soundtrack to “Ratnam’s Bombay” in 1994 which showcased the composer’s disregard for the limits of cultures and genres. Following these successful soundtracks Rahman signed a three year deal with Sony Records and released his debut non-film album “Vande Mataram” in 1997. The album was made available in 28 countries across the world and celebrated India’s 50 year anniversary since their independence.

After a number of shows across Canada, Europe and the U.S., Rahman collaborated with Talking Heads frontman David Byrne, and scored the soundtrack to David Lloyd Webber’s “Bombay Dreams”. The theatre production ran for over 250 performances in London and New York and once again showcased another string of the talented composer’s bow. In 2005 Rahman opened up AM Studios, which is conceivably the most advanced recording studio in Asia, and proved the home to a number of Rahman’s productions.

In 2007 Rahman produced the soundtrack to the English-language film “Elizabeth: The Golden Age”, which was followed by his most high-profile Western film to date “Slumdog Millionaire”. The film went on to win eight Academy Awards, including two for Rahman for Best Original Score and Best Song. In 2011 Rahman joined the ranks of the supergroup SuperHeavy alongside Mick Jagger, Dave Stewart, Joss Stone and Damian Marley, and a year later composed a Punjabi song for the Danny Boyle-directed London Olympics opening ceremony.

Live reviews

A.R Rhamna has been a successful music producer and composer in India for a very long time; but, like most people, I only became exposed to his music through his composition for the movie Slumdog Millionaire. The very same composition and production that won him two grammy’s for Best Compilation Soundtrack album and Best Song Written for Visual Media. On top of all his production success for films, he is also a live performer, and following the success of Slumdog Millionaire, he traveled the world to do his live performances.

His Los Angeles show was at the Hollywood Bowl, which happen to be a great setting for his music. In the middle of July the summer night was perfect, slightly crisp but warm enough to be completely comfortable. Most of the crowd was completely mixed, with people of all ages, all who were excited to experience an internationally renowned composer. Most were aware of his success from the film, and were eager to hear more from him outside of the “Jai Ho” popularity. When he took to the stage he was very warmly welcomed and thanked the audience (on multiple occasions) for their support and presence. The show was a one for both your ears and your eyes, as he also had a number of Bollywood dancers on stage for some songs as well.

A.R. Rahman, perhaps India's most celebrated musician of the past century has been awarded a whole host of awards including Oscars, Grammys and BAFTAs for his contribution to the world of film and television. The musician holds a masterful knowledge of the cinematic and the dramatic and composes beautiful, spanning classical pieces of music.

With an impossibly large discography where he has delved into all aspects of his multi-instrumental nature, his concerts are more about the performance as opposed to a simple gig. Playing with a sublime orchestral band, everything has been dramatised from the recordings and seems so much more grand and majestic.

The singer plays for two hours without even the slightest sign of wavering whilst he switches between singing and the huge variety of instruments he has trained to play. The audience applauds loudly for every song and after the ornate finale complete with those irresistible Bhangra influences, the crowd is on its feet as a whole to celebrate this talented musician.

I passed the offer to go to the Rahat Fateh Ali Khan concert for AR Rahman. However, although he is a world-renowned musician and an amazing singer, I was extremely disappointed. He barely sang any songs and if so it was with other singers. It seemed as if he was trying to make them more popular and forgot that we came for him. I came for the Hindi-Urdu songs he is famous for which were only sung on the second half of the show. However, the most famous songs like Jai Ho and the Bollywood 90s he is known for were brushed upon so quickly at the finale just so we remembered that "oh yeah, he did sing these songs..the reason why we came..thanks!" He shouldn't have been the MC since he was wearing too many hats and kept going in an out. He is an amazing singer and I have so much respect for his music, but the execution during the concert was disappointing.

I was shocked to learn that this concert had been cancelled a week before the scheduled date i.e. 26 March! This was not the first time!! It was supposed to take place back in March in Leeds and again it was cancelled a week before the date.

Thereafter the organisers and the artist did not apologise for this or the previous cancellation! Instead they suggested that we should purchase new tickets to a further show due to take place in July in London!!!

Are they going to pay for our travel expenses and overnight accommodation - don't think so, do you!

I would think twice before I decide to buy anything with the same organisation!!

Sorry it seems harsh, but this was supposed to be a special treat which we were looking forward to.

ar rahman biography date of birth is wrong ...correct it...and about his intelligence in music and instrument usage is a lesson to all the music directors and future players..his attitude , humbleness and faith on god and dedication and all other morals and ethics are ever taughtable by everyone on this planet earth..I have been trying to see him once in life time but am not getting chance ..everytime am missing him..this time i think god would bless me

The A.R. Rahman concert was a blast and a lot of songs were played as well. It was a great experience and A.R Rahman is the music wizard. (Isai Puyal) I can't wait to go to another A.R. Rahman concert. It is the best show I have been to in my life and I enjoyed it so much.

AR Rahman’s 2023 Europe Tour – Germany, France & Switzerland announced

  • 28th July 2023
  • POST IN : KOLLYWOOD

This autumn, AR Rahman is performing live across Europe, marking his first-ever Europe tour.

So far, the confirmed countries for the 2023 concert tour include Germany presented by Tamil.de & A.J.Entertainment, France by Shruthilayah and Switzerland by Thaalam Media.

London is potentially on the cards for late September, but this has yet to be confirmed officially. It’s rumored that Hamsini entertainment & Hue Box, the organisers behind AR Rahman’s 2017 concert at Wembley arena, which celebrated 25 years since his acclaimed debut Roja, will present AR’s return to a UK arena – most likely The O2 in Greenwich, London.

So, the question remains – What songs will he perform? Specifically how many Tamil, and Hindi songs?

Over the decades, AR Rahman’s UK concerts have always been a multi-language music experience. Despite Rahman being Tamil himself and having composed much of his music in Tamil, his set list for his UK concerts would include more Hindi than Tamil songs.

However, in 2017 the set list was changed for his Wembley arena concert titled ‘Netru, Indru, Naalai.’ A few more Tamil songs were included, but it never out numbered the Hindi songs.

ar rahman world tour

Sadly, this was not received well by a portion of his Hindi fans who attended the concert. The disgruntled fans complained about the number Tamil songs, taking out their frustration during the performances. Some walked out of the concert, and took to social media to demand refunds. The news made international headlines, and went viral across social media – thankfully in support of AR Rahman.

A few months later, Arya Canada who presented his Toronto tour, held one show for his Tamil hits and another for Hindi. Both shows did extremely well, proving that there was a solution to keep everyone happy.

We eagerly await for more information on the upcoming Europe tour. Stay logged onto thamarai.com for the latest entertainment news.

AR Rahman all set for world tour

Music maestro ar rahman will launch his world tour on june 11 with a show at the nassau coliseum followed by concerts across the us, canada, france, zurich, holland and britain..

ar rahman world tour

In the US, the 45-day world tour titled AR Rahman Jai Ho Concert: The Journey Home World Tour will take him to New Jersey, Washington, Chicago, Detroit, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Raleigh and Atlanta, according to the organisers.

Deepak Gattani of Rapport Productions with Amy Tinkham as creative director has produced the concert that promises to be a theatrical experience blending new technology with powerful dance arrangements and acrobatics.

"It will be a blend of the East and West, from Bharatnatyam to pop and tap dance," said Tinkham.

"The concert will break all barriers with a spectacular show of music and songs from the great music maestro who has won the prestigious Oscar, Grammy awards and numerous other world awards in the field of music," she added.

"The concert will keep intact the heritage and tradition of India with a new modern presentation. The show will feature changing sets, large images on LED screens and a spectacular cast of musicians and dancers from across the globe," Tinkham said.

The concert will span throughout Rahman's career, right from its inception with "Roja" to the latest hit "Slumdog Millionaire" which brought him the Oscar. Besides these, there will be songs from "Laagan", "Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na", "Dil Se", "Rang De Basanti" and his other creations.

The producer, Deepak Gattani, said: "In the 150-minute musical spectacle, the very soul of India can be experienced. From the myths of rural India to the colours of the festivities, the rhythm and beats of the urban culture, this musical concert will have it all."

The music maestro will also travel by road in a bus during the tour. The entire team will move around in 53-foot air conditioned trailers with six touring coaches and one star coach ferrying the entire entourage.

"An international composer cannot make music that is purely national in quality," Rahman said.

"This will be the first time that I will be performing in London since winning the Oscar and so it is important to play music that will be accepted by an international audience but which retains an essential Indian quality," he added.

It will give them a great opportunity to experience and see how many people are involved in creating huge scores and create a thirst among the younger generation to become orchestral musicians.

I am grateful to all the people involved in making this project a reality. Particularly, the Goethe Institute, Dr. Marla Stukenberg, the Babelsberg Orchestra and Matt Dunkley. This record is to acknowledge the wishes of the many score lovers who have been wanting this from me for a long time. I hope all of you enjoy listening to this. I feel this is the beginning of many good things to come from this part of the world.

Ellapugazhum iraivanukke.

IPL 2024: Virat Kohli asks fans not to embarrass him, ‘When you call me that…’

Whatsapp

RCB rebranded to Royal Challengers Bengaluru with a new logo and jersey at an Unbox event on March 19

On March 19, the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB)—now rebranded as Royal Challengers Bengaluru—launched a new phase with an Unbox event at the Chinnaswamy stadium in Bengaluru. The franchise introduced a new logo and a new jersey ahead of IPL 2024. At the end of the Unbox event, Virat Kohli made a request to his fans.

Fans had to wait before they could hear “King" Kohli speak. First, it was the RCB women’s turn to be recognised for their glory. RCB women, led by Smriti Mandhana, won the WPL 2024. It was the first time RCB won a T20 tournament. The men have not been able to claim the trophy in the last 16 editions.

When Virat came to speak, host Danish Sait asked him, “How is the King feeling?" Virat said, “It is lovely to be back again." And the fans went crazy. However, their idol had a few things to tell them.

“Firstly, you need to stop calling me that word [King]. I was telling Faf that it is very embarrassing for me when you call me that name every year; just call me Virat," he said.

Now, will the fans stop calling him King Kohli? Sachin Tendulkar’s fans did not listen to him and still called him the “God of Cricket." Both these monikers were first dropped by the media and adopted by the commentators, much like Geoffrey Boycott naming Sourav Ganguly the “Prince of Calcutta". However, for Virat, it might have been a fan who started this.

Who was the first to call Kohli ‘King’?

Kunal Gandhi, an Indian fan living in Australia, claimed during an interview with Daily Observer that he had named Virat “King Kohli".

“During India’s tour of Australia in 2014, I wanted to gift him a jersey but did not want to write only his name without adequate adjective. He was in form then and suddenly the word King came to my mind and I presented him a jersey with his name King Kohli on it. He gave his autograph on the jersey and people have started him calling King Kohli (sic)," Gandhi told the publication.
