They had to travel deep into a dense forest to meet the Oscar-winning musician at 3 a.m.According to Sameer, he was initially told that the music sitting would begin at 11 p.m., but the wait extended far beyond that. “When we reached his house, we saw that Ram Gopal Varma had fallen fast asleep on the stairs, Subhash Ghai had passed out on the swing in the lawn, Asha bhosle was singing inside, and Udit Narayan was just talking nonsense upstairs — but in all of this, Rahman was nowhere to be seen,” he said.Sameer opened up about a scary meeting with AR RahmanRahman wasn’t at his residence. Instead, his assistant directed Sameer, director Rajkumar Santoshi, and producer Ramesh Taurani to a second location. They were asked to follow a car, which eventually stopped on the side of a highway. There, they saw a man holding a lantern, who instructed them to follow him as they drove into a dense jungle. “It felt like we were heading to a horror film session. The man walked ahead of us with a lantern, and we followed in the car. It was a dense jungle,” Sameer recalled.They eventually arrived at a remote cottage hidden in the forest. Upon reaching the place, Rahman was found sitting inside, wearing headphones and positioned in front of his keyboard. The tunes they heard that night were for The Legend of Bhagat Singh. The film starred Ajay Devgn in the lead role.
