A.R. Rahman set to co-author memoir, ‘Rahman: A Renaissance’
The celebrated composer and global music icon announced that he will co-author a new memoir exploring his music, creative journey and the ideas that have shaped his world.
A.R. Rahman is set to collaborate with acclaimed writer Rupa Chakravarty on Rahman: A Renaissance, an intimate memoir that will offer readers unprecedented insight into the life, music and creative universe of one of the world’s most influential artists.
Co-authored by Rahman, the book will explore the many ideas, influences and experiences that have shaped his journey, from his early years and artistic evolution to the music and philosophies that continue to define his work today.
“My music comes from the constant evolution of my mind. The challenges, aspirations, dilemmas and tests I go through, the brotherhood I experience, the psychological turmoil, and faith, they are all interconnected. In some way, all of them become a part of the music I make.” says A.R. Rahman. “Through this book, I hope to share some of the moments, influences and ideas that have shaped that journey.”
With Rupa Chakravarty bringing her distinctive storytelling voice to the collaboration, Rahman: A Renaissance will take readers beyond the spotlight and closer to the artist behind the music.
