Abbas Tyrewala: I don't have the luxury of working with  AR Rahman

Abbas Tyrewala has given hit films like Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na and Jhootha Hi Sahi.

Highlights

  • Director Abbas Tyrewala, who worked with music maestro A.R. Rahman for his first two films, says he is not working with the Oscar-winning composer in Mango.
  • "AR (Rahman) is not doing the music for the film. He's a dear friend, but there are so many demands the world is making on his music. Every year one more city gets added that wants him," Tyrewala said.
  • Rahman had earlier composed music for Tyrewala's Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na and Jhootha Hi Sahi.
  • "There are certain realities that come with working with him and those realities sometimes involve a lot of waiting and travelling. A film with a bigger budget can afford that, but a film that is a little tight on time, and clearly because it's all newcomers, so it's a little tight on money, can't.
  • "Unfortunately it's a luxury I don't have. To work with somebody whom I've done great work with, this time I don't have that option," he added.
