Ella Pugazhum Rahmanukke (All Glory To Rahman): Dhanush At Raayan Audio Launch Event
Dhanush’s second directorial “Raayan” is all set to release on 26th July. A.R,Rahman has composed the songs and background score for the film
Recalling their interactions for the movie, Dhanush said, “Whenever I needed a tune, I would play one of his songs and ask for a similar one. He would listen and say, ‘I have already done many things like that. Let’s make something new.’ His willingness to churn out something fresh constantly, even after scaling such heights, amazed me. You are the only music director who has a punch dialogue, ‘Ella pugazhum iraivanukke (all glory to God)’. Those who heard the BGM are already saying, ‘Ella pugazhum Rahmanukke (all glory to Rahman).’ Thank you so much, sir.”
Apparently, Rahman accepted the film when he was already working on 30 other movies. “When I called Rahman sir, I informed him that this was my 50th film and wished to see the tag ‘An AR Rahman Musical’ along with it. He asked me to give him two days to respond. When he called back, Rahman sir told me that he was working on as many as 30 films at that moment. ‘It’s a very tough yes, but I am giving you a yes,’ he said. I will always cherish the memories of working with you” Dhanush revealed.
Dhanush and A.R. Rahman had previously collaborated for Maryan, Raanjhana and Atrangi Re.
