\n\tA.R. Rahman<\/a>, the two-time Oscar-winning Indian composer behind \u201cSlumdog Millionaire\u201d and \u201c127 Hours,\u201d is launching ARR Immersive<\/a>, an app bringing his decade of immersive storytelling work to Apple Vision Pro<\/a> on July 22.<\/p>\n \n\tThe app draws on Rahman\u2019s ongoing work in immersive formats, tracing back to \u201cLe Musk,\u201d a 360-degree virtual reality film that debuted at the Cannes XR Festival. ARR Immersive marks the first time content from \u201cLe Musk\u201d has appeared on Apple Vision Pro, with the footage reworked for the headset\u2019s spatial format.<\/p>\n \n\tThe launch library also includes original content made exclusively for the platform. Three Kathak dance performances merge Western orchestral scores with Indian classical dance, featuring performers Pranith AP, Palak Chauhan and Mudra IV, with choreography by Shrita Baskar. ARR Live, a dedicated section devoted to Rahman\u2019s concert performances, completes the initial lineup. Further titles are being developed for later rollout.<\/p>\n \n\t\u201cFor me, music has always been more than something we hear, it is something we feel emotionally,\u201d Rahman said. \u201cTechnology now allows us to experience stories and music in ways that were unimaginable just a few years ago. With the ARR Immersive App, we wanted to create a space where audiences don\u2019t simply watch a performance or listen to a composition, they feel present within it. This is about bringing together music, storytelling and innovation to create experiences that are deeply personal, emotionally engaging and truly immersive. I believe this is an exciting new canvas for creators, and this is only the beginning.\u201d<\/p>\n
