The shoutout for Taylor Swift from AR Rahman comes after the music director praised the singer, picking her over Ariana Grande in an interview with Connect FM Canada. About the prospect of working with Taylor Swift, he said, "Whatever she wants! If she wants a dance number, it will be a dance number; if she wants a romantic number, it will be a romantic number. She writes the lyrics anyway!"
About Taylor Swift's meteoric rise and prolonged success, he said: "If people take the power of music to do good things, it is great. Michael Jackson had the power to do that. He did a lot of charity concerts and did philanthropic work in Africa. It is nice to see Taylor attaining that. She has gone through so much. She got cheated and made a comeback. She is a good case study and inspiration for musicians." He also mentioned Taylor's Swift Blank Space and added that her work serves as an inspiration to the music world.
