‘Mozart of Asia,’ musician Allah Rakha Rahman has done everything from classical to reggae and now with Shekar Kapur’s ‘Elizabeth: the Golden Age’ awaiting release, where he pairs up with Hollywood actor Craig Armstrong, he is very excited. “It has been really a wonderful experience working with Craig. We traveled a lot in places like Glasgow…Remotely working with the guys in London,” says Rahman who was in the capital recently.
The singer-composer has his hands full with a lot of films, the latest being Ashutosh Gowarikers ‘Jodha Akbar’ starring Hrithik Roshan and Ashwariya Rai Bachchan. Jodha Akbar is a romantic story about a king falling in love with a princess and ARR has tried to keep the music contemporary so that it satisfies both critics and the music lovers. The music of the film is very much what is required for the film. It has celebration songs and quawallis.. Rahman, who composed the music of Subhash Ghei’s ‘Kisna’ is once again paring up with the director in his latest flick, ‘Yuvraaj’ which is a very challenging project. Practically A.R.R had a tough time composing the first two songs but now as those have been cracked he will be able to wrap it up quickly.
