Various Artist's on ARR

Madhushree : as she is popularly known in the music industry has sung for films like Saathiya, Swades, Kisna, Paheli, Mangal Pandey and Rang De Basanti to name a few….
You work mostly with A.R.Rahman?
Yes, but I sing for others too. I enjoy singing for A.R.Rahman. He experiments very well with the songs he asks me to sing. I believe his songs are very different. I really thank God and A.R.Rahman whenever he calls me to sing for him and we have been giving good songs together so far.

Kailash Kher : Title song in Mangal Pandey, including the qawwali. I recently recorded a song in Kannada for Rahman. Whether I work with him or not, I feel it is my fortune to know him. If I were to sit next to him, even without knowing he was a composer, I would still get beautiful vibrations. It is a spiritual experience.I continue learning endlessly. I learn from his humility. I learn how to treat artists with respect, how to inspire singers and lyricists. I wish I had a teacher like him when I went from one guru to another in my early days.

Naresh Iyer : had the whole country swaying to songs such as `Roobaroo’ in `Rang De Basanti’ and more locally `Munbe Vaa’ from `Chillunu Oru Kadhal’. If you have heard of Naresh, then you have probably heard of the story about how A.R. Rahman gave him the good news-bad news line. This was at a national singing competition last year, where Rahman had to judge 25 finalists. The bad news: he was out of the competition. The good news: he would be working with Rahman. “Everyone thinks he is really serious but after one or two meetings, he is so warm. It doesn’t feel like a professional relationship, the atmosphere is so casual.”

Sukhwinder Singh : is the most renowned singer in Bollywood today. The voice behind “Chhaiya Chhaiya” has become the most sought-after in India’s tinsel town.
Which has been the most memorable moment in your career?
The most memorable moment of my life was when I met A R Rehman

Malgudi Shuba : I have sung " Yei Muthu Papa " song for ARR. There is nothing negative against ARR anytime. I know him since 1990. I met him during doing Jingles time. The key to my musical journey was in the hands of ARR

Pop Shalini - It was a very important stage in my life to have worked with ARR. I got the chance to sing with him for Fanaa song ( Yakkai Thiri ) and also Maram Kothiye chorus. Its always a fantastic experience , and feel proud of being a part of his team
Tippu : I like his simplicity and humility. I do not have any life without ARR. It was he who gave me a break. Simply said , " I LOVE RAHMAN".

Sivamani : We used to do a lot of jingles in Malayalam, Tamil, telugu. Then we started Roots. He is amazing. Till now I have been playing for him. I am honoured to be with ARR. I thank GOD, I thank Tamil nadu for giving ARR

Kavignar Muthu Kumar - I have written " Paravasam " song, Jodha Akbar Tamil song, chakkarakatti song, ATM song. ARR gives a lot of freedom, knows how to respect people. On the same night, i wrote Valayapaati song, and also for Chakkarakatti. He will ask us if we liked the song , and if we say yes, he will say Ok we will record. And At times, when the song goes out of beat, he will change the tune to fit the wordings. So flexible. He will always encourage saying good thoughts must be communicated well in the song . Today, worldwide ARR 's feathers are flying high. I pray that he reaches to much more heights . ARR being a tamilian, is a pride to all Tamilians

Kavignar Pa. Vijay - right from tenali, I have been working with him till ATM. He is a great Blessing to the Music World. His studio is like a holy spot, and it vibrates with spiritual vibrations . His tune mesmerises us and seduces us , and we feel motivated to write more and more

Karthik : I saw the staging of Bombay Dreams in UK, and it was an unforgettable moment. Its very difficult for a singer of Indian origin to compose universally accepted tunes to be easily accepted by people of different origins, an the credit goes to ARR.
