A. R. Rahman - Is he the best musician?


Allah Rakha Rehman (A. R Rehman), Indian film composer, musician & singer is truly the best for the current time & ages to come.

He has been awarded with 13 Filmfare awards (its one of the oldest & prestigious award event for Indian Movies) & with 4 National Awards. His music not only blessed Indians, but its now globally accepted to be the best. And why not, "Slumdog Millionaire", an Indo-British movie, won Oscar for the best motion picture for 2008 & made it mark specially for its music. This was a first solid opportunity for Rahman to get a deserving Global exposure & he scored on the first go.

National achievements weren't enough, now he is acclaimed with 3 awards at two most prominent Award events, he is the first Indian to get a Golden globe award & first Indian to get TWO Academy Awards (Original Score & Original Song for 2008), what an achievement.

Started his career with a small mixing studio in his backyard which was later developed to be the most advanced recording studio in India. He played Keyboard & piano in his rock band "Nemesis Avenue" at Chennai. He now plays keyboard when he compose music, that's the reason apart from his music composing talent the creative tunes from his Keyboard makes it to be the best. :)

And why not he is also the world's "all-time top selling recording artist" for more than 300 million music media to be sold by far.

One of his masterpiece is "Fanaa" from the movie album "Yuva" & to get an essence of how great he is at the keyboard listen to this "O Humdum Suniyo Re" from the movie album "Saathiya".

And obviously the very famous "Jai Ho" with A. R. Rahman & Pussycat Dolls, featuring Nicole Scherzinger. But this track isn't even any closer to his other ones :)
