Indian Maestro Up To A New Level

A.R.Rahman has done it again. The best musician India has ever produced; Rahman has won the Golden Globe award for the Best Music Composer for his amazing music in Danny Boyle’s Slumdog Millionaire. The film tells the heart warming story of an 18-year-old orphan from the slums of Mumbai who goes on to win a staggering Rs.20 million ($420,000) on India's "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?" game show. Rahman’s music has helped the movie to show all the emotions and thinking of a slum orphan. This earned him the prestigious award. Now Rahman is all set to be nominated for next month’s Academy awards.

Winners of the Golden Globes are determined by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association and are often considered a precursor of contenders for the Academy Awards. The earlier week, Slumdog Millionaire had won two awards from the Los Angeles Film Critics Association - Best Director for Boyle and Best Music for Rahman
