For those unversed, Salman Khan and A.R Rahman had also found themselves amid a controversy when the former’s film Jai Ho was released. Rahman had alleged that he owns the rights of the title due to his Academy Award-winning song by the same name. The song was used in the Danny Boyle directed Slumdog Millionaire in 2008. A.R Rahman had also alleged that using the title was a breach of copyright.
In a recent interaction with a radio station, A.R Rahman was asked why he chose to do fewer Bollywood projects. To this, the composer replied that he has not been saying no to good films. On the contrary, he further added, he feels like there is a ‘gang of people’ who always misunderstands his interpretations and are spreading false rumours about him. He explained how when Mukesh Chhabra approached him for Dil Bechara, A.R Rahman gave him four songs in just two days. He also added that according to him, there is a whole gang working against him.
