MUMBAI: Shalmali Kholgade says she wants to prepare herself as a good and worthy musician before working with Oscar and Grammy winning composer AR Rahman.
“Like many singers, even I want to work with Rahman sir. But for that, I want to prepare myself as a better musician. I work hard on myself and he keeps inspiring me, so that one day he will give me a chance to work with him. That is my sentiment about working with Rahman sir,” Shalmali told IANS.
Shalmali feels the music by Rahman, who turned 50 on Saturday, has changed the perspective of Hindi film music globally.
