A R Rehman and Mani Ratnam are inseparable pairs. They have a long-standing association and have worked in many films together. So it doesn't come as a surprise when Rehman becomes the chosen one for Mani Ratnam's forthcoming film 'Guru'. Rehman is working on the scores and is looking forward to come out with something lilting; following the success of 'Rang De Basanti' that is still a rage.

He composed a track recently, a 'bhang number' featuring Abhishek Bachchan. Bappi Lahiri has sung the song. Bappida sings for Rehman for the first time here and we're surely looking forward to hear this unusual combination. Rehman stressed that he wanted Bappida especially for the song, as his voice was most ideal for the number. He is almost certain that Bappida's voice will tune well with Abhishek's. But why didn't he do the number himself when he has sung many songs for varied films and has been appreciated as well. "I guess I'm just lucky that people liked my singing so much. Personally I feel I've a long way to go as a singer. Also I avoid singing for lead actors," he says.
