A.R. Rahman, the versatile music director, sets the record for being the most expensive music director. He had been paid a whooping 10 crores, for Shankar's new directorial venture Robot starring Rajnikanth and Aiswarya Rai Bachchan in leading roles. His previous project was also with Rahman - Sivaji - The boss which also topped the charts. The duo had always been together except for the movie Anniyan.
Rahman is learnt to be straining his every nerve to ensure that the music would be something to remember and cherish. Now, it is time for another superhit from the infallible duo.
Shankar had set India to the foot-tapping numbers of Rahman, with 'Gentleman' (1992). Who can forget the impact that "chik puk chik puk raile" and "Ottakathe kettikko" had on the Indian music lover? The stunner-of-a-music-score had instantly raised Rahman to iconic status. In no time, the humble wizard from Chennai became the toast of the Indian music world.
All the films, which Shankar later directed, except for 'Annyan', had Rahman's lilting numbers as their hallmark.
'Kathalan', 'Jeans', 'Muthalvan', 'Nayak' (Hindi), 'Boys'- all these Shankar-ARR albums went on to become chartbusters.
It was rumoured that after 'Boys' the duo fell out on some "silly misunderstanding".
Anyway, bereft of each other's company, each of them went about their jobs and reaped success.
