Abbas Rahbi, an assistant to A R Rahman is the most recent who turned composer from the maestro’s training with ‘Sa Boo Three’.  Following him Rahman’s long-term assistant Taj Noor is turning composer now.

Taj who was under Rahman for more than 15 years is composing for debut director Vyas’s ‘Vidiyum Varai Kaathiru’. The specialty of this film is that it has no heroes. So the queen-bee who will rule the show is our Azhagiya Laila- Ramba! Guess what? The film is produced by Ramba’s close relative. (Call-sheet with big discount rates hum?). Sources further add that Prakash Raj will be acting in an important role.

Rahman is a person who tries something novel. He is a good guru by nature and normally gives quality education for his disciples. He recently unveiled his plans for a first-ever collaboration in music instruction between his K M Music Conservatory and London’s Middlesex University.

Let’s see who comes next from the teacher’s school…
