Meanwhile, Rahman recently said he always aspires to create music which resonates with people across age, gender, caste, class and interest. In his almost three decade-long career across languages, he believes, he has been fortunate enough to work with people who strive to achieve harmony.

"I''ve got a great team and all of us have made cinematic masterpieces, I would say. But it''s a fight... You know there will still be a fight where there are certain disagreements and where I have to do my part and they do their part and when it''s in unison, it''s fun," he added.

Rahman said the fact that he did not join the industry with an aim to become an icon gave him the courage to break the boundaries. "I didn''t have any insecurities. Because only a person who wants some result would be insecure and then he''ll compromise on what he does. But for me, my intention was not to go further. I had more courage to do things."
