I googled Rasam Sadam and realize it is an south indian dish and gonna hunt Indian restaurants this weekend to taste it :))) Sorry about the presonal trivia .. on to my main question , Can you guys help me identify songs of ARR based on Sindhu Bhairavi Ragaa ? Elementary search on Youtube yielded Sudhas rendition ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-T39eNTf9g) , i still haven't developed an mature ear for carnatic and really couldn't enjoy it ... I also found a few instrumental versions * http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dKM1YJcO_cU * http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1OBE-B3tqB8&feature=related ( Prasanna on Guitar ) But I am curious to see where ARR has used this in his works and how he has interpreted it ?

His younger children Rahima and Ameen spray snow foam on each other when Rahman's mother comes down and tells the waiting media that Rahman has just finished dinner. "He hardly slept last night and he will be down shortly." Rahman talks to TOI Q: How different was Slumdog Millionaire' (SD) from other foreign productions ? A: There was much less work. I did not have to give 190 cues, and director Boyle gave specific instructions on what he wanted. I had a clear idea on what should go into the music. Putting the sitar in was a complete surprise. Q: What has the international response been like? A: The film was like a holiday to Mumbai for viewers and they could connect with the hero because USA is also going through recession. It was also a relief from the usual kind of film scores. Q:People say you are humble. Who instilled that in you? A: I follow the Sufi philosophy of destroying your own ego. Not that I have mastered it, I still land up in situations I could have avoided. Q: What do you look for in vocalists and instrumentalists? A: Great personality. Should be a quick learner, and have a feel for the music. Should have a quality of his own, not copy or imitate. Q: How do you make time for the ordinary things in life? A: I do that all the time, because the ordinary things divert you. I took the children to my flat in London while scoring for SD and it was half-work, half-holiday. It was great fun. Q: The defining moment in your career? A: The National Award for my first film. I thought it comes only when people retire. Q: A few of your favourite things? A: Sindhu Bhairavi(Carnatic raga), home food even if its rasam sadam', Regent's Park in London and all the music stores in USA. Q: What went through your mind when you walked down the carpet to the Golden Globe? A: Each little moment was the best. My wife Saira had helped me pick an Armani suit in Thailand, and I was wearing it because it is Hollywood. And for the first time in my life I felt tense. I prefer kurtas usually. http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/Chennai/Rahman_speaks_on_Slumdog_Sufism_and_Sindhu_Bhairavi/articleshow/3986032.cms -- regards, Vithur
