Couples Retreat- A R Rahman's foray into Hollywood Film
Mumbai | Saturday, Nov 21 2009 IST
 

Oscar winning composer A R Rahman has made his foray into composing music for Couples Retreat, the upcoming Hollywood comedy from Peter Billingsley starring Vince Vaughn, Jason Bateman, Jon Favreau, Malin Akerman, Kristin Davis, Kristen Bell and Faizon Love.

The soundtrack will be released via Saregama India Limited digitally and in all retail outlets nationwide on November 30, a release issued here today stated. For the flick, A R Rahman has conjured up the sounds of a tropical island oasis fusing the laid-back rhythms of island music along with his gift for creating golden melodies. The opportunity to work on 'Couples Retreat' was a welcome challenge for Rahman, who created a score that complements the films light-hearted tone with a hint of his signature 'Indian' sound, the release added.

''There are so many musical avenues to be explored,'' said Rahman.

''Ive wanted to try new things and for a long time and had hoped to have the opportunity to venture into American comedy. This film presented a lot of creative challenges and was deeply rewarding to be a part of,'' he added. Rahman captured the international spotlight after winning two Academy Awards for Best Original Score for his work on Slumdog Millionaire and Best Original Song for ''Jai Ho'' (Music by Rahman, Lyrics by Gulzar). Based on an original idea of Vaughns, the comedy follows four Midwestern couples, who embark on a journey to a tropical island resort. While one of the couples is there to work on their marriage, the other three set out to jet ski, spa and enjoy some fun in the sun.

They soon discovered that participation in the resorts couples therapy is not optional. Suddenly, their group-rate vacation comes at a price. What follows is a hilarious look at real world problems faced by all couples.
