Music composer AR Rahman has claimed that there is a "gang" in the Hindi film industry that is preventing him from getting work.
Rahman's comments come amidst a raging insider versus outsider debate in Bollywood following actor Sushant Singh Rajput's untimely demise last month.
During an interview with Radio Mirchi, the Oscar-winning music director was asked the reason for doing less Hindi films.
Rahman said there has been "misunderstanding" between him and filmmakers as some people have been spreading "false rumours" about him in the industry.
"See, I don’t say no to good movies, but I think there is a gang, which, due to misunderstandings, is spreading some false rumours. So when Mukesh Chhabra came to me, I gave him four songs in two days. He said, ''Sir, how many people said don’t go, don’t go (to him). They told me stories after stories''," he said.

"I heard that, and I said, 'yeah okay, now I understand why I am doing less (work) and why the good movies are not coming to me.' I am doing dark movies, because there is a whole gang working against me, without them knowing that they are doing harm," the composer added.
Rahman has composed the music for Rajput's last movie Dil Bechara, which premiered on Disney+ Hotstar on Friday. The film, directed by Chhabra, also features Sanjana Sanghi and Saif Ali Khan.
The composer further said that he is aware of people's expectations from him but the "gang" is getting in his way.

"People are expecting me to do stuff, but there is another gang of people preventing that from happening. It is fine because I believe in destiny. I believe that everything comes from God.
"So, I am taking my own movies and doing my other stuff. But all of you are welcome to come to me. You make beautiful movies, and you are welcome to come to me," Rahman added.
