• Music is the essence of life; without music everything is lifeless.
• There are many popular bands and musicians in my country such as Euphoria, Bombay Vikings, the
Agni band, and so on.
• But here I would like to talk about a very popular musician of my country; he is none other than
A.R.rehman.

• He is in his 40’s.
• He is not very tall but looks very handsome.
• He has composed many songs which have become world famous.

• He first became popular from the music he composed for the movie ‘Roja’.
• His music is very heart touching.
• He usually plays the fusion music.
• It is the blend of the Indian classical and western classical.

music and technology
• I once saw an interview of A.R. Rehman on TV.
