Music maestro AR Rahman finds solace in silence

From making music for regional cinema, Bollywood movies to international films, expect music maestro AR Rahman to be constantly creating new music. And in between breaks in movie projects, the Mozart of Madras is busy doing live concerts. When we asked him how he unwinds, it was interesting to know that the musician-filmmaker makes use of silence for relaxation.He elaborates, “I listen to music constantly! So, silence actually helps. Sometimes, I also meditate and that rejuvinates me.” Even when he is travelling, or is being driven around, he prefers listening to something else other than music. “I turn on the radio and listen to news instead,” he shares.
