AR Rahman takes a dig Masakali 2.0

AR Rahman takes a dig Masakali 2.0, recalls creating original with '365 days of creative brainstorming, no short cuts'

As soon as Sidharth Malhotra and Tara Sutaria’s recreated number Masakali 2.0 released on Wednesday, fans of the original wondered how AR Rahman would react to the new version. And the Oscar-winning music maestro isn’t pleased.

AR Rahman refrained from commenting on the remix version but took to Twitter to talk about the original. He shared a note and captioned it, “Enjoy the original #Masakali.” The note read, “No short cuts, properly commissioned, sleepless nights, writes and re-writes. Over 200 musicians, 365 days of creative brainstorming with the aim to produce music that can last generations. A team of a Director, a Composer and a Lyricist supported by actors, dance directors and a relentless film crew.” - Lots of love and prayers A.R. Rahman.”
