MUMBAI: In August, The Screening Room focuses on three of the world`s top film score composers – Hans Zimmer, Lifetime Academy Award-winner; Ennio Morricone (The Mission, The Good, The Bad & The Ugly) and Bollywood film composer and instrumentalist, A.R.Rahman, who has sold over 200 million albums.
Credited for introducing Indian music to the west, A.R.Rahman discusses with host, Myleene Klass on his collaboration with Andrew Lloyd Webber to produce the hit musical `Bombay Dreams`. The renowned Indian musician, who has composed some of the most stunning tunes for Bollywood films, also shares his experience working with different directors including Deepa Mehta, Shekhar Kapur and Ashutosh Gowarikar, before revealing his views on the future evolvement of the Indian film industry.
