I have learned a lot from Rajini: A R Rahman

Bangalore, May 28 (PTI)

Oscar award winning musician A R Rahman has credited ailing Tamil superstar Rajinikanth for teaching him the ropes of the film industry and has hoped that the actor, currently convalescing in Singapore, recovers soon.

The 61-year-old is currently in the island nation for "treatment and rejuvenation" after he was discharged from a Chennai hospital, where he was being treated for respiratory problems.

After working together on last year's blockbuster 'Endhiran', the 'Jai Ho' hitmaker is now composing the music for Rajinikanth's upcoming film 'Raana'.

"Only two songs are yet to be composed. I will do it after Rajinikanth returns from Singapore. I have learned a lot in my career in the film industry from him," Rahman told reporters on the eve of his concert here.

It was on the first day of Raana's shoot on April 29 that the star was hospitalised for exhaustion.
