That's not mistake. Surabhi r&d was perfect. As far as I know, just before finalizing for Roja credits, ARR's mother wanted ARR to change his name from Dilip to some Islamic name, which they all had embraced quite some years back. Then ARR's spiritual guide (forgot his name) suggested that it should be A.R.Rahman. The initials A and R were first thought of Abdul Razzaq but not finalised. Later they all decided on Allah Rakha. That's the reason till 1995, I also knew that ARR's full name is Abdul Razzaq Rahman but later only came to know about Allah Rakha Rahman.
I hope I'm not wrong. Somedays back I read an article also on this very topic but cant remember where I read it.
