I'm back in Tamil - AR Rehman

Music India OnLine - I'm back in Tamil - AR Rehman: "After a busy schedule in New York and London, Rehman has finally found time for Tamil cinema again. 'My previous film was 'Warriors of Heaven and Earth'. This is a Chinese film. I had to fly between Chennai and London to complete the film's re-recording. Chinese people like Mohana raaga. I had composed most of the tunes based on this raga and on Sindhu Bhairavi. They loved the tunes,' he said.

I'm dedicating this year to Tamil films. SJ Surya's 'Best Friend', KS Ravikumar's 'Godfather' and Kalaipuli Dhanu's film with a new director are some of the projects for the year. I'm planning to concentrate more on Tamil films right now.

Rehman had composed music for UN's fight against Leprosy. The UN General Secretary Kofi Annan himself had narrated the concept to Rehman. Does he have any plans to help the tsunami victims too? I was told that the affected people have received enough financial aid. I'm planning to do something to encourage them. I will surely participate in something like that."
