Rahman proposes, Himesh disposes

A R Rahman wants Himesh Reshammiya to sing his composition; but Himesh has other plans


Himesh Reshammiya

Himesh Reshammiya had once said that if he had to sing for any music director other than himself, it would have to be for A R Rahman. Now, Rahman has come up with a composition, which he thinks is apt for Himesh to sing.

Rahman said, "Yes, I have come up with a composition that Himesh can do justice to. It is an important song for a big actor, in a huge project and for a big banner. But since the shooting of this song will happen only next year, it will be wrong on my part to disclose too many details about it at this time."

• I don't sing for any outside banner (where I don't act). I would instead request Rahman saab to give music for one of my films where I am the actor and singer – Himesh Reshammiya

So what made Rahman choose Himesh for the song? Rahman said, "Himesh's voice and the attitude with which Himesh sings is just apt for this composition. I haven't spoken to Himesh as yet but I will be talking to him very soon."

When we told Himesh about Rahman's plans, he said, "I am a great fan of AR Rahman and his music. It's a great honour for me to sing his composition, but as a policy decision, I only sing for myself onscreen. I don't sing for any outside banner (where I don't act).

A R Rahman

I would instead request Rahman saab to give music for one of my films where I am the actor and singer. In fact, if he agrees, it will be a dream come true. In my forthcoming films Kajra Re, Mudh Mudh Ke Na Dekh Mudh Mudh Ke, A New Love Ishstory, and an untitled film for Studio 18, at least one composition in each album is dedicated to Rahman saab. I just love his music.

AR Rehman is such a grt composer dat he doesn't need a person like Himesh to make his composition a hit....any other singer would be more than happy to accept his offer..there's noooo scarcity of singers in bollywood......who gives a damn about Himesh nd his stupid nasal voice.....agreed that he's a good composer.....but not necessarily a good singer......

Thank you for sparing us Himesh by refusing his offer.
But I must say, he truly is a man of his words. I mean refusing ARR, that's a big deal.

Frankly AR can get any singer he wants. Unless Himeshji is stuck to some contract with others he should agree. It is a great privelege to sing for AR.

Well if today himesh say yes to AR Rahman than tomorrow he needs to yes to all others composer friends and director and then his policy will be useless and I think this is the reason why himesh said no to AR Rahman.
