He saw the studio and said this is where the recording is going to take place. I smiled and then after the release of ‘Roja’ he came to me and said music can be created anywhere,” said Rahman.
About SPB’s talent, Rahman added that he would learn the song in 15 minutes and sing it in 10 mins and move on to the other recording. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a singer like that so quick and professional and so humbled.
