I am an architect , doing good in my field. If asked even to be an office boy at Rehman's studio , i might quit my profession. My Role model .
Yup..yup..yup.. absolutely 🎉
I know right I’d do the same
Same here sir....
No doubt. Bro.
Shekar Kapur's words - If this is how world reacts to Jai Ho, let them hear the rest of Rahman😂
Kind of what we all felt at that time.
But taking nothing away from Jai Ho.
The right song in the right movie.
Hats off ARR no body Will come in next 1000 years like this man
Hope not. Every generation has its Rehman.
This man was universal hero. proud to be say AR Rahman sir is an Indian
I never liked the conventional Tutti, dholak indian film music and my ears and heart was open for new sort of music all the time and then comes the Roja and A.R Rahman just fill the bill perfectly. Felt in love with his music within first min of listening Roja. The guys made me buy my first ever cassette(Roja) from my own pocket money. And then list of buying album goes on and on. I have to buy every single new album e.g Bombay, Rangeela, Delhi-6 and even Chor chor(Maybe no one heard about that). It was essential for me to listen every upcoming single album.
As a Pakistani, if one day someone will ask me to barter one person from india to Pakitan, I will ask for Mr Allah-Rakha Rahman without hesitation. Love you Rahman!
This man deserves a biopic movie, the journey from his childhood to winning the OSCAR
My eyes were moist repeatedly. I would have never known AR Rahman so well. He is a Sufi Saint. He is genius.
There cannot be another Roja for Tamil or Rangeela for Hindi... They are ARR best debut music till date
Honestly I'm not bollywood fan, I very rarely watch bollywood movies...I do love those 80s and 90s movies but haven't know that all those 90s famous songs was made by AR. Huge respect!
Same here . Just recently discovered that every song i was attracted to actually from AR rahman .
38:45 And Rahman is taking his last prayer inside...im crying out, I don't know why😭😭😭
47:56 was a shocker! No one can explain the mentality, mood and strength of ARR like RGV does....
Watching it second time. This documentary traveled with AR Rahman. He saw and experienced orchestra abroad and he want same quality in India that too from Indians. So he started a school and begin grooming kids to make orchestra in a decade. What a beautiful dream. What a legend!
His music always blesses my ears.
Thank you legend ❤️
Your huge fan from Bangladesh 🇧🇩
Me Too❤️❤️
There is more about him that not being shared in this documentary. Rahman is like a treasure, the more you explore the more you get.
Rehman waiting for your next Oscar man!!
So true waht Shekhar Kapur said," .....let the listen to the rest of Rahman......". Exactly how i felt.
Such a great documentry.. deserves more views!
Oscar is just a toy for this Man ❤️❤️❤️❤️ love u A R RAHMAN
I cant believe.. I sat for 1 hour 25 mns...!! then I found my love for this man... I am really proud that I am living in his neighbourhood in #Chennai
I think he is the last living legend in indian music.... No one after him.....
This is the full documentary. Other videos of this on youtube seem to have edited out certain parts. Thank you so much for this. It is truly precious for a die hard Rahmaniac like me.
Just listening to this inspires you to do something greater than yourself in life!
I never wanted this to have an ending...!!! Thanks for such a soulful documentation and the sound quality was quite amazing. ARR for now and for always!!!
What a 90's we had.. Rahman u were the great inspiration
I could not find any word in my dictionary that can define your talent & contribution...
WE LOVE YOU SIR 😘❤️
Started up just to watch for few mins as it's night when I am watching it but ended up watching whole film till midnight. This is how time flies when topic is of your interest. Here,of course Music and AR Rahman 😊
35:42 best lines by sir A R RAHMAN. A very few people think this way ❤
Proud to say that I am from the land of AR RAHMAN❤️
I'm watching again and again... Great documentary... Proud to be a fan of ARR🙂🙂🙂
Roja, Bombay, Rangeela, Taal, Lagaan, RDB...Etc ..Etc.... Timeless Classic & Future Generations are Wondered the Music, Sounding, Lyrics, Songs....#ARR ❤️🔥
What he's saying at 16:25 is so true, back in the early 90s the film songs had every type of instrument and some of the songs were really long. AR Rahman changed that.
Mind Blowing Documentary for a Legend A R RAHMAN... My childhood best musician is all time best Musician in World. Love and respect from Bangladesh
In 52:30 mnts Mani Ratnam Sir perfectly showed the way of getting fresh and best Music from Rahman Sir, now a days most of the director doesn't knw how to get best from Rahman Sir and Rahman sir him self said that he used to give what comes out when Directors getting rush and hurry
Lucky to be born in this era to hear his music....TAKE A BOW TO ARR
I 'm watching it twice.
Hope this documentary hits millions
When he play Roza on piano..... It's emotional
His music was very much different from rest. We never felt bored of his music even after many years.
He is a Living Legend and an Inspiration to all of us....... I feel blessed to have grown up listening to his music. he is my favourite since childhood and there's no match to him to date, many have copied him but he is what he is.....Just Great his humbleness, selflessness earned him a divine talent in music production.
I think Rehman has done alot and that too studded with selected jewels of music . Even if he stops to produce music , his treasure is simply incomparable .....
ഒറ്റ പേര് AR RAHMAN.
ഞങ്ങളുടെ MUSIC LEGEND.
Kindness, love and unity- some of the things what AR stands for
He's the god of music. Nobody can match him till now
ARR forever ❤️
He is a bithovan of India..... Proud for Indian music lover and always an inspiration for Indian musician..... Great A. R. REHMAN
THis is the best!!! IT is going to be a treasure and source of infinite inspiration for many aspiring musicians! He is such a genuine soul.
Let me get my prayers and spirituality in order!! He inspires me a lot in that aspect too!!
Love you Allah Rakha Rahman!!!
A great piece for AR Rahman's work. He is a legend.. Love from Balochistan.
WHENEVER I HEAR THE ROJA SONG HUMMING AND MUSIC I COULD NOT ABLE CONTROL MY TEARS
An amazing documentary on the living legend that that should reach millions...I didn't want it to end...and went back several times to see the clips of him speaking and being praised again.
27:30 dont know why it hurts me so much every time when listening..
The real disciplined person of all time.love you ARRahman
The Great virtue of AR is great respect to his country...
AR changed indian music to another level ❤❤❤
I'm just glad to be alive to witness the greatest musician of all time 🙏
How he created future music in 30years back, how is that possible, he is unbelievable and direct from the music god
if we can call him a visionary/revolutionary in the field of music- it would not be wrong.
Only musician who can understand the MUSIC in SILENCE and vice versa... #Rahman
Thank You God for giving us your precious Angel. May he always reach into your heart and deliver to the world Divine Vibrations.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
love you, Rahman!!!!
By watching this whole film I would say there is only one A.R.REHMAN in this world...
I WOULD LOVE TO SAY THAT THIS IS NOT JUST A USUAL DOCUMENTARY FILM.
IT'S AN AMAZING EXPERIENCE AND KIND OF AN INSTITUTIONAL APPROACH TO GET CONNECTED WITH MUSIC THROUGH
SIR AR RAHMAN SIR

🙏🏻💐🙏🏻
AR is the greatest treasure of music world.
How simple this man is and by just seeing him feels peace and makes remember the God.
"Jai ho" is my least favorite song of AR. Sorry its my personal opinion. If "Jai ho" deserves an Oscar award, AR should awarded for 25+ Oscar for his other beautiful creations. Any way he got an (delayed) Oscar.
(I can give Oscar for his first movie "Roja" itself, but unfortunately its not made by a foreigner)
I completely agree with you..👍
istg
Bombay, Dil Se, and Lagaan deserved an oscar not only for their songs but their background score as well. what a breathtaking BGM.
it has woven the story so well. one of the best I have heard in world cinema.
definitely matching the level of Hans Zimmer
Not 25+
150+
agreee
I agree it was popular because it was a pop/dance song. There many better songs of rehman.
is it just me or everytime i hear ar rahman i see little demons in me falling out and i feel purer everytime. soothing beyond imagination. i bow to you sir @ar rahman
One of the most valuable Documentary 😍😍, ARR... role model for my music life
I am that what I am because of his music........
Purity of dedication,hard working and love, great personality 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Pride of India and the world 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💐
Believe me or not, I worship, literally worship ARR as god.
With Such Talent And Stature, His humility Towards Life And stuff Make Him A Great human Being! Lots To Learn From Him
Music itself got a complete smile face, in the name of AR REHMAN.. ❤️❤️❤️
Listen from 1:09:25- 1:10:25.. Chitraji at her best who hails from singers paradise state which had big role to play in Rahmans musical journey. He grew up surrounded by music directors from Kerala...
ARR has unique blessings.
Role model guy to humanity.
The Great, Legend, If Music has a second name that would be A R Rahman.
A R Rahman is a genius simply a genius.
Excellent video no words to say
AR Rahman is legend
ARR you'r Genius🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

I am a damn follower of him.... Though my creative pattern is different.. my role model...The A R Rahman
He is an incantation of God in form of light and sound which is eternal. He touches every individual soul. I was in a transe with this documentry. God give MR A.R.Rahman a long life with Good health. Our prayers are with you for ever Mr Rahman. Love you so much. We can see feel God through you and the music what you create. God Bless
Sufi songs and spiritual ones resonates more with what AR is. That's why the products are so pure

In Our Hearts He Iz Bharat Ratna #ARR ❤️🔥
Master of music🎶🎵
A R Rahman sir❤️
such a GENIUS!!!! I love Andrew Lloyd Weber and Love A R RAHMAN
One of the Best Documentaries I have seen after "Born into Brothels" by Zana Briski, Ross Kauffman! It should have been nominated for an Oscar! OR at least a National Award!
A R Rahman is a genius born after a long long time! But his use of "Cakewalk'" (Software)'was not touched at all !!!
The best documentary, I totally love it.
Beautiful documentary. I loved ar rahman sir more after seeing this on a personal level than just musical
