Resul Pookutty refutes AR Rahman’s communal remark, “He shouldn’t have said that. I have never faced anything like that in my entire career”

Oscar winning sound designer has much common in A R Rahman. They both won Oscars for Danny Boyle s Slumdog Millionaire and they are both Muslim.

So, has Resul also felt the communal thing that Rahman says he has experienced?

Defending Rahman s remarks Resul Pookutty said, If you listen to what he said about this is, when he was removed from projects he heard whispers from people referring to it as that might be communal . Now what he said is what people told him. In the same breath he said, people are too mature to not see things beyond all these factors. It seems we are very quick to pin Rahman down. I think he said things with sincerity. Let s not crucify him for what he felt about the situation at the moment when he was being asked about it.
