Viral Video: AR Rahman Requests His Wife Saira Banu To Speak In Tamil Instead Of Hindi

AR Rahman is a maestro of music, whose unparalleled talent and artistry have captured the hearts of millions across the globe. Hailing from India, he has revolutionized the music industry with his unique blend of Indian classical music, western harmonies, and electronic sounds. With a career spanning over three decades, Rahman has not only composed some of the most iconic soundtracks in the Indian film industry but has also been recognized with numerous international awards, including two Academy Awards, two Grammy Awards, and a BAFTA Award.

Recently, a video of him at a Tamil film award show has gone viral, showcasing his deep love and appreciation for his Tamil culture and language. In the video, he requests his wife to speak in Tamil instead of Hindi, further demonstrating his passion for preserving his cultural roots.

With an air of intrigue and admiration, AR Rahman shared a personal anecdote at the award show about his wife’s fondness for his interviews. As the spotlight shone on Saira, Rahman handed her the microphone, prompting her to speak. With a soft smile, he affectionately urged her to speak in Tamil, he said “Please speak in Tamil, not Hindi.” Although hesitant, Saira bravely took the stage and expressed her adoration for Rahman’s voice, confessing that “Sorry, I can’t speak fluently in Tamil. So, please excuse me. I am super happy and excited because his voice is my favourite. I fell in love with his voice. That’s all I can say.”

Their unwavering commitment towards each other has stood the test of time, and they have been blessed with three children – Khatija, Raheema, and Ameen. As a power couple, they have not only shared their love for each other but also their love for music and the arts.

AR Rahman also boldly voiced his opinion on a statement said by Union Home Minister Amit Shah’s remark on Hindi being the connecting language. Refuting Shah’s statement, Rahman passionately declared, “Tamil is the true connecting language.” In a powerful statement, he stood up for the southern states of India, where the Minister’s comment had stirred up resentment. Rahman’s unwavering stance in upholding his mother tongue further cements his role as a proud ambassador of Tamil culture and language.

On the work front, AR Rahman is currently anticipating the release of the upcoming historical action film ‘Ponniyin Selvan: Part 2’, which has been directed by the renowned Mani Ratnam. Rahman has provided the music for this highly-anticipated movie, which boasts an impressive cast including Vikram, Trisha Krishnan, Karthik Sivakumar, Jayam Ravi and Aishwarya Rai in pivotal roles. The film is scheduled to hit the theatres on April 28, and Rahman’s fans are eagerly awaiting his melodious compositions in this epic saga.
