Music maestro A. R. Rahman is now associated with US-India-Bangladesh film No Lands Man as a co-producer and a composer. With acclaimed Bangladeshi filmmaker Mostofa Sarwar Farooki at the helm, the film revolves around the South Asian man's excursion that gets arduous when he bumps into an Australian woman in the United States.

With two Grammy Awards, a Golden Globe Award, a BAFTA Award, and countless other accolades under his belt, A.R. Rahman will be playing a vital role in No Lands Man. In an interview with Variety, Rahman noted that time tends to give new worlds and new ideals.

Rahman noted that the newfangled world comprises new challenges as well as new stories, adding that No Lands Man is one such story. Indian actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui will be seen in the film along with debutant Megan Mitchell, who is an Australia based theatre actor. Aside from them, the film features Bangladeshi singer and actor Tahsan Rahman Khan.

Siddiqui announced Rahman's association with the film via a tweet. The Sacred Games actor said it wrote it is a pleasure to have Rahman not only co-producing but also doing the music of his film. As expected, the tweet's comments section was flooded with excited replies within just a few minutes.

The film has been shot in the United States, Australia as well as India, but is largely in English, with a few Hindi and Urdu dialogues. Talking to the outlet, Siddiqui said although filming for this project proved to be quite arduous, it will definitely fulfilling. The 46-year-old Indian thespian said Rahman's brilliance is going to make the film richer.

Garnering MPAA and Asia Pacific Screen Awards’ Script Development fund back in 2014, No Lands Man was included in the Asian Project Market at Busan and was also selected as the best project at India’s Film Bazaar in the same year. The film is produced by Bangladesh’s largest streamer Bongo BD, Sun Music & Motion Pictures in collaboration with India’s Magic If Films, Bangladesh’s Chabial, and U.S. outfit Dialectic Screwdriver.

During an interview with Variety, producer Srihari Sathe said he discussed No Lands Man with Farooki at Film Bazaar about six years ago. Sathe says the film has now become even more relevant as it explores the vulnerability of a person in a world that's been racially divided.

Before the coronavirus pandemic forced the makers to withhold the project, post-production was underway in India, Bangladesh, and America at the same time. 99 Songs marked Rahman's foray into filmmaking as a producer. The 2019 musical romance film premiered at Busan but is still awaiting its post-pandemic release.
