Last month, AR Rahman grabbed attention after saying that the Hindi film industry might have become more \u201ccommunal\u201d in recent times. He later explained that people had taken his words the wrong way. Now, the Oscar-winning composer said that the whisper game played on the Tv show was a good example of how messages can change or get mixed up as they\u2019re passed along.<\/p>\n<p>AR Rahman talks about miscommunication<\/p>\n<p>During the appearance in the latest episode of The Great Indian Kapil Show, he said, \u201cThis is a good exercise to see how information gets misunderstood. Different states, different cultures. The problem with the world is this, how messages get corrupted on the way\u201d. <\/p>\n<p>AR Rahman Responds to Ramayan Controversy, Calls Epic a Story of Values Beyond Religion<\/p>\n<p>AR Rahman promotes his silent film \u2018Gandhi Talks\u2019<\/p>\n<p>AR Rahman joined the show to talk about his new project, the silent film \u2018Gandhi Talks\u2019, directed by Kishor Pandurang Belekar. He was accompanied by the film\u2019s stars <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/topic\/vijay-sethupathi\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"\" commonstate=\"[object Object]\" frmappuse=\"1\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Vijay Sethupathi<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/topic\/aditi-rao-hydari\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"\" commonstate=\"[object Object]\" frmappuse=\"1\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Aditi Rao Hydari<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/topic\/siddharth-jadhav\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"\" commonstate=\"[object Object]\" frmappuse=\"1\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Siddharth Jadhav<\/a>.While discussing the soundtrack of Gandhi Talks, Rahman shared that working on a film without dialogues offered both freedom and pressure. \u201cIf there are no dialogues, it\u2019s such a celebration of music. Because you have all the real estate to do music, but also terrifying because people will be judging. Every note will be exposed,\u201d he said. Rahman also praised director Kishor Pandurang Belekar, calling him the first filmmaker who fully embraced every tune he created. \u201cHe\u2019s the first director who never came and told me anything negative and said, \u2018I don\u2019t like this.\u2019 Whatever I give, he takes it. Even if I play \u2018tang\u2019, he would say yes,\u201d quipped the Oscar-winning composer.<\/p>\n<p>AR Rahman opens up about power shift in Bollywood<\/p>\n<p>However, during his chat with BBC Asian Network, AR Rahman opened up about why he has been getting fewer opportunities in the Hindi film industry over the past eight years. He attributed it to a \u201cpower shift\u201d within the industry, saying, \u201cMaybe in the past eight years because a power shift has happened and people who are not creative have the power now. It might be a communal thing also\u2026 but it is not in my face. It comes to me as Chinese whispers that they booked you but the music company went ahead and hired their five composers.\u201d His statement quickly sparked conversations online, leading him to issue a clarification shortly after.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"AR Rahman recently spoke about how messages often get distorted, saying, \u201cThe problem with the world is how&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":268697,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[120746,84803,458,146,120748,85,46,120750,25996,15837],"class_list":{"0":"post-268696","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-celebrities","8":"tag-aditi-rao-hydari","9":"tag-ar-rahman","10":"tag-celebrities","11":"tag-entertainment","12":"tag-gandhi-talks","13":"tag-il","14":"tag-israel","15":"tag-siddharth-jadhav","16":"tag-the-great-indian-kapil-show","17":"tag-vijay-sethupathi"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/268696","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=268696"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/268696\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/268697"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=268696"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=268696"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=268696"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
