Music maestro A R Rahman has listed out five songs, all composed by him, which he considers his best. “Though I like all my songs,
these numbers are close to my heartâ€, he said.
“Narumugaiye… from Iruvar, Ennavale… from Kadhalan, Margazhi Thingal Allava from Sangamam, Kadhal… from Udhaya and Veerapandi Kottaiyile… from Thiruda Thiruda are those five songsâ€, he said in an interview to a Tamil magazine.
Throwing light on his spiritual side, the Oscar-Grammy winner said, “One can lead his spiritual life in a simple way or in a complex way. I am following what elders have preached. I can now see no difference between joy and sorrowâ€.
Saying that his aim is to create more musicians, the Mozart of Madras added: “I need huge amount of money to start music schools and to run them. Hollywood projects can help me earn. But I can’t accept all the offers that come my way just for the sake of moneyâ€.
