The What<\/strong>: Hey, guess what! I am posting answers to a bunch of questions I asked seven years ago<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The What. The. Fuck<\/strong>: Yeah, I know. I have this bad habit of starting stuff and never finishing ’em. You know, like the rest of you fuckin’ slobs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Why: <\/strong>Because someone left a comment, and I am too nice to let comments pass by unanswered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Really, Why: <\/strong>I don’t know, man. Closure, I guess. Probably because the world is ending, one wants to wrap up unfinished business. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I thought about putting this up on Slideshare, but this was getting chatty and link-encrusted at the same time. So I figured there is no point in diverting traffic to a different site when I could just have fun in my own backyard. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Naveen is the Rahman regular on the flute\/wind instruments. Who is the Rahman regular on the solo violin?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\nAnswer<\/span>

M Kalyan<\/strong>
Kalyan who had worked with A.R. Rahman\u2019s father R.K. Sekar, was also part of ARR\u2019s group right from his first film \u2018Roja.\u2019 \u201cRahman was a hard working boy. While working for other music directors, even during breaks, he would just stick to his keyboard and keep working on it. Highly matured even at that tender age, he was always a man of few words.\u201d

Note: since going international, Rahman has used different violinists while touring, notably Ann Marie Calhoun, who he worked with during the making of Superheavy, with Mick Jagger, Damien Marley et al.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

A very peculiar music sample is associated with Raghuvaran\u2019s character in Kaadhalan (Humse Hai Muqabla). The theme music of which other Rahman film begins with the same sound?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\nAnswer<\/span>

This is the sample I am talking about (the video should begin at t=39s).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
