AR Rahman claims his mother sold her gold to pay for the first piece of studio equipment he needed: “At that point, I felt empowered.”

Even though Oscar winner AR Rahman is now well-known in the music business, there was a period when he struggled financially to establish his studio. In a recent Netflix interview, the music legend said that his mother had to sell her jewels to enable him to purchase his initial studio equipment.

AR Rahman went down memory lane and discussed his personal struggles during a meeting with the Amar Singh Chamkila crew, which included poet Irshad Kamil, vocalist Mohit Chauhan, and director Imtiaz Ali.

Lack of funds to purchase studio supplies

He recounted how his family supported him during his difficult times during the talk. “I didn’t have enough money when I built my studio to buy an amplifier or equaliser,” he remarked. Just an AC unit with a carpet and shelf was present. Before, I would be sitting there with nothing to buy. I was sitting indoors without any tools when I constructed this. My mother promised her jewels, and that’s when I received my first recorder. At that point, I felt in control. In that one instant, I changed, and I could see my future.”

The Grammy Award-winning composer continued by saying that he didn’t attend college and that he had once felt as though something was missing. I used to go out on dates with folks in their 40s and 50s when I was twelve. I listened to a lot of other music out of boredom and curiosity about what was out there. For me, that aspect was amazing. He said, “There was so much out there.”

Rahman’s latest endeavours

AR Rahman received praise more recently for his soundtrack to Imtiaz’s Amar Singh Chamkila, which debuted on Netflix on April 12 and quickly rose to the top of the OTT community’s most cherished projects. The movie’s unique soundtrack was praised in addition to the plot.

The documentary follows the life of the late Punjabi musician Amar Singh Chamkila, who was well-known for his upbeat songs and often provocative lyrics. He was travelling to a concert when he was shot and killed.

AR Rahman already said that he enjoyed working with Imtiaz in a News18 interview, stating, “He is very friendly.” You know, there’s never any pressure when working with certain people; it simply happens that way. There’s never any pressure when you’re around him. Making Punjabi music has always been my dream. I like how powerful music’s language is. Thus, this was a fantastic chance.

Calling Ben Affleck “Our Hero” on Father’s Day, Jennifer Lopez refutes rumours that he is “giving up” on his problematic marriage.

Are Bennfier 2.0 and I reconciling? Only a few days after rumours that Jennifer Lopez had abandoned her husband started to circulate, a charming social media message has taken the internet by surprise. J. Lo appeared to blow off all the divorce whispers on Father’s Day by openly praising her husband Ben Affleck. She called Affleck “our hero,” sharing a black-and-white image that left everyone wondering if the Bennifer romance will resume.

Jennifer Lopez happy Father’s Day to Ben Affleck.
Ben Affleck, who is renowned for being an excellent co-parent, received a surprise on social media on Father’s Day from his spouse. A lovely comment and a white heart emoji accompanied the vintage photo of Ben wearing a black leather jacket that J.Lo found and shared on her Instagram Story, reading, “Our Hero..Happy Father’s Day.” The pair has been living apart in separate homes at the time of this touching message, which has led to suspicions of a divorce and marital discord.

The unique homage was given just one day after the star of Accountant 2 was photographed heading back on Sunday, maybe following a meeting with J.Lo at their LA home. After that, his ex-wife Jennifer Garner—who has been trying to keep the marriage afloat—was spotted at his Brentwood rental home. It’s unknown if the three met, but hours later, the Jenny from the Block singer also paid Affleck a visit. Lopez didn’t spend much time there.

Children of Jen and Ben: Violet, 18, Seraphina, 15, and Samuel, 12, are the three children that Ben co-parents with Garner and his wife, Lopez, but the Hollywood A-list pair does not have any children together. In addition, Lopez’s twins, who are 16 years old, have him as their stepfather. 

Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez’s “divorce drama”
There have been rumours for months that the couple went through a “rough patch,” and that the stars decided to live apart as their $60 million shared home in Beverly Hills was put back up for sale on real estate websites. According to a number of stories, JLO has been making efforts to keep her marriage to Affleck intact. But last week, the Daily Mail was informed by a source that Jenny had had enough, saying that despite her best efforts, she was at her limit. The statement “It’s not getting better; it’s getting worse” highlights Lopez’s decision to dissolve their “troubled” union in the event that things don’t improve quickly.
