Tired of the relentless attention ever since he triumphed at the Oscars, composer A.R. Rahman requests all to let him be.



"I'd just like to retreat in my cave for a while," Rahman told IANS.

After winning the two golden statuettes for his compositions in "Slumdog Millionaire", Rahman is inundated with offers.

"The workload is getting heavier. Rahman is inundated with work from both home and abroad. He has taken on one new Bollywood project
Abbas Tyrewala's '1-800-Love' and he needs to finish Tony D'Souza's 'Blue' whose background score and the Kylie Minogue item are yet to be completed."

Rahman is also disturbed by the rumours.

"Rahman has to deal with false stories about his global conquests. Like the one that said he had replaced David Beckham in a cellphone ad for a staggering fee," said a close friend of the composer.

Friends feel he's being put under tremendous performance anxiety and this may reflect on the quality of his work.

"Rahman has decided to stay completely away from the public glare for some time. He is currently spending time on the
music of Abbas Tyrewala's film. Then he has called Tony D'Souza to Chennai to complete the music of 'Blue'. After that he will quietly leave for London and the US. Under no circumstance will he allow himself to be put under the microscope."

Well I hope & wish some of the biggest stars would learn a thing or 2 from Rahman. I bet on my life if it was any of the big stars who had won the oscars they would try to get maximum mileage out of it- think about it these stars go around even spreading false stories about some ficticious movie with Johny Deep or some big Hollywood star to get them some publicity. Rahman on the other hand is a man who knows that it is his work that is important & nothing else.

Rahman truly is an inspiration & I salute him.
