Rahman: I am back

Though he was constantly in the news for all good reasons, there was not a single Tamil film from AR Rahman last year. But things are no more the same, as the Oscar-Grammy winner is currently working on a slew of films in Kollywood.

"It's a kind of comeback for me. I am compensating my absence," said the music maestro, adding that he is busy with some interesting projects (Superstar Rajinikanth's 'Kochadaiyaan' and Mani Ratnam's 'Kadal'). Also in the pipeline for Rahman are Bharat Bala's 'Mariyaan' with Dhanush, Gautham Vasudev Menon's 'Yohan Adhyayam Ondru' with Vijay and Shankar's forthcoming film which is expected to kick start soon. Meanwhile, the big buzz is that Rahman would foray into television, in association with Gautham Vasudev Menon. It is said that he would compose music for a TV serial, which is to be directed by Gautham.
