Imtiaz Ali: This Is Not The Right Time To Make AR Rahman Biopic

Filmmaker Imtiaz Ali, who has worked with A.R. Rahman for films like Rockstar, Highway and Tamasha, is of the opinion that the Oscar winner’s life is worth a biopic, but feels that it should be made later on.

At the premiere of One Heart: The AR Rahman Concert Film, Imtiaz said:

 “Definitely… I think a biopic should be made on A.R. Rahman sir, but I don’t think this is the right time to make film on his life. One can start with the research but it should be made later on. He is too young and he has not even reached the middle point of his career.”

Rahman has marked 25 years of his music career in films.

The movie’s premiere was attended by celebrities like Ashutosh Gowariker, Armaan Malik, Boney Kapoor, Akriti Kakar, Javed Jaffery, Alka Yagnik, Udit Narayan, Raghav Sachar, Mukesh Chhabra, Roop Kumar Rathod, Lalit Pandit, Pankaj Udhas and Jubin Nautiyal.

At present, Imtiaz is hard at work on his next. “I am writing new scripts. I am trying to figure out which one is good and as usual, I am trying to find best scripts to which I can do justice.”

One Heart: The AR Rahman Concert Film released earlier this year.
