Some of the popular numbers in which I have played are ‘ Ennavaley ’ in the film ‘ Khadhalan ’, ‘ Akadaa ’ in the film ‘ Indian ’ and another one in 2000 , ‘ Khadhal Sadu Gudu ’ and another ‘ Kalloori Salai ” from the film ‘ Kadhal Desam ’.

The best part of working with Rahman is that he lets you do whatever you want to do and he is always smiling on takes .
Over the years , I have been doing different Bases . For my first recording for Rahman , I used a Washburn Bass , that was 4-string . Later I got a Jazz Bass for a different recording and from the year 2000 , I have been using a 5-string Base like an Ibanez and then a Fender square . What I use now is an endorsement from Warwick . I use this permanently in studios for recordings and live shows .
Touring with Rahman is a big experience . The hours of practice you put in , the sound check and other things make the experience memorable and worthwhile . One particular tour which I like to mention happened in 2010 when we did a world tour beginning from the United States and other countries where we played with the local musicians . I must say that it was a really unforgettable and magical experience . With the way those guys used to practice everything perfectly and playing with a big set-up , you know have to give your best . That is Rahman . He is a perfectionist
Upcoming musicians , the first thing you guys need to do is search your soul and be true to yourself . Practice non-stop and always thank God .
