Danny surprised with Rahman's musical ideas

A.R. Rahman has received three Oscar nominations — one each for the film's soundtrack and the songs "Jai Ho" and "O Sayya."

Boyle had long been a fan of Rahman's before making "Slumdog," and quickly rattled off a list of some of his favorite Rahman tunes — from "Taal," "Lagaan," "Kisna" and "Rang De Basanti."

But the composer ended up surprising Boyle by coming up with unexpected musical ideas.

"There's a scene when Jamal's brother goes off to kill someone and he wakes up at night, and from a scoring point of view it should clearly be a sort of creepy, quiet sound," Boyle told India-West.

"A.R. came in with this thumping track, completely the opposite of what you expect. It was exactly right!"
