Habib Wahid

The composer talks about his fear of unforeseeable disasters, his admiration for AR Rahman and love for Thai food, Interviewed by Christopher Sangma

When are you the happiest?
When I am anywhere near a melodious tune that can touch my soul

What is your greatest fear?
Unforeseeable disasters like earthquakes, tsunamis and even wars

Who do you most admire and why?
AR Rahman as the legendary icon never fails to inspire me

What’s the trait you most deplore in yourself?
I can’t think of any…

What do you most dislike about your appearance?
I am kind of happy with myself. But I don’t like it whenever I gain weight. I am weight-conscious!

What or who is the greatest love of your life?
Music

What has been your biggest disappointment?
When I couldn’t stay around to talk to AR Rahman, who I bumped into at Heathrow Airport, UK. My uncle, who flew in from Canada, made me leave with him before I could initiate a conversation

When did you last cry and why?
It’s been a long time since I have actually cried. Well, there are some really good movies that made me shed tears. But honestly, I can’t think of the last time I really did cry.

What’s the trait you most deplore in others?
Their deceptive nature

Tell us a secret…
I had a miniature helicopter which I flew around in my studio. But it broke a few days ago and I am sad about it

Who would you like to invite to your dream dinner party?
Family and friends first as they make the life I know

Your favourite food…
Thai food! Although I do like Bengali cuisine, Thai food is just amazing!

Food you dislike most…
Any dish that has coconut milk in it or is sugary in nature. I like sweets and chocolates but when it comes to dishes, I like it my way
