when i was approached for the film i knew i had to make a certain kind of music by that i mean the kind of music yashjis films have been famous for the kind that the audience associates with his films i didnt have the liberty to deviate from it so i went prepared to work within a limited area also i had done rockstar before jab tak hai jaan and rockstars music was a hit so perhaps people were looking forward to something similarwhich they didnt get in this moviewere you personally satisfied with the outcome i was satisfied with what i created within the sphere that i was given but yes i am equally disappointed because i have heard that people did not really like it but then again i hear that the films music keeps getting hitsit is often said rahmans music grows on you yes i have heard this a lot of times and i have been trying to understand why when i make music it remains mine initially and i have heard people saying oh we dont like it but when they hear it over and over again they begin to like it and say its not bad and then it gradually moves on to oh thats really nice i think that is why they say my music grows on people its a connection that builds gradually but one that lasts i guess i follow a simple formula when i compose i ask myself what would the audience want to hear and why would they buy my cds and the process of answering these questions through music follows sometimes it works sometimes it backfireswhen it backfires does it disappoint you it does but there isnt much one can do about it i am the kind of person who does not like to carry baggage in fact i dont go back and listen to my own music i believe in closing chapters and moving forward thats what gives me peace sowhen i am done with composing music for a film or an album and its released i am done with it its over for me i dont go back and listen to them either in fact i dont like my family to listen to them to so i keep those cds aside and then i am prepared to take on the next projecta lot of filmmakers want to work with you but is there any director you are particularly waiting to work with there are many who want to work with me but i have been busy laughs to answer your question i am ready to embrace anybody who will approach meyou have won academy awards grammys the bafta and many more but yet a lot of people continue to be critical of those achievements too does that upset you as a human being as a man who is emotional in life yes it does upset me it upsets me to hear stuff about me like
