For the uninitiated, AR Rahman in his recent interview with Radio Mirchi said that he does not say no to good movies, but believes that there is a gang, which is spreading some false rumors, due to some misunderstandings.
He added that when he had a conversation with Mukesh Chhabra, who told him that people had been telling him not to go to Rahman. It was then that the music director realized why he was getting less work at Bollywood and why he wasn’t getting good movies. He added that he is working on dark movies since there is an entire gang working against him.
