Malappuram: Soorya has drawn a picture of AR Rahman. That may not be something unusual but if closely watched there is a hidden musical touch in it. The entire picture is composed of the lyrics of AR Rahman’s songs.
There are 391 songs in it starting from his first song ‘Chinna Chinna Aasai’ from the movie Roja. The eyes are passionately drawn with the lyrics of his evergreen song ‘Kannalane’ from the movie ‘Bombay’. She has drawn it in two hours and 20 minutes in a stretch.
In October 2021, Soorya, a young artist from Malappuram, Kerala, created a remarkable typographic portrait of music composer A.R. Rahman. This portrait, measuring 71 cm in length and 56 cm in width, was composed entirely of the lyrics from 391 of Rahman’s songs, beginning with his debut track “Chinna Chinna Aasai” from the movie Roja. Soorya completed this intricate artwork in just two hours and 20 minutes, earning her a place in the India Book of Records for the “Biggest Typographic Portrait of A.R. Rahman.”
A.R. Rahman himself acknowledged Soorya’s achievement by sharing the news on his social media platforms, further highlighting her talent and dedication.
This accomplishment is part of a broader trend of young Indian artists gaining recognition for their innovative contributions to the art world. For instance, the MASH Young Artist Award has spotlighted emerging talents like Sayantan Samanta, whose works are inspired by global agrarian issues.
Additionally, platforms such as the India Art Fair have become significant venues for showcasing the works of young artists, reflecting the dynamic and evolving nature of India’s contemporary art scene.
