Naman Ramachandran Oscar, BAFTA and Grammy winning Indian composer A.R. Rahman (“Slumdog Millionaire”) has revealed his next directorial venture after “Le Musk,” his debut which premiered at the Cannes Film Market’s Cannes XR program.The project will be another film in the VR space, titled “Confessions.” “Now this [“Le Musk”] is finished and we’re happy about it, we just want to do something which is much more simpler, but more deeper in emotion,” Rahman told Variety.
A script is 60% ready, Rahman said.Unlike “Le Musk,” a passion project that commenced in 2016, “Confessions” will not take that long to come to fruition because the technology has evolved since then.“I see technology as a tool to bring out a very different kind of emotion to transport people,” Rahman said, adding that his “Le Musk” team had worked tirelessly solely on the project for six years. “Le Musk,” which evolved from an idea from Rahman’s wife Saira, is a transporting experience involving haptics, aroma and motion, experienced at an immersive VR chair by Los Angeles-based company Positron.It follows heiress and musician Juliet Merdinian, who, 20 years since she was orphaned, seeks out the men who changed her destiny with one powerful memory — that of their scent.
Saira has an “incredible sense of smell,” says Rahman, with a dressing table packed with 150 perfumes, and can identify scents at 10 paces.
Her olfactory sense is so keen that she advises Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan on his choice of perfume, Rahman says.The process was a journey of discovery for Rahman and his team who were on a quest to keep the experience as subtle and comfortable as possible without the usual VR complaints of nausea and fatigue.
