ARR-Catch him if U can! IndiaGlitz [Tuesday, March 17, 2009] Considering the demand for his compositions, getting A.R.Rahman on board for a project was never an easy task for the producers back in India. Now after his twin-Oscar triumph, it has become all the more difficult. In all probabilities the music maestro will be seen doing less music for Indian films.
Well this situation is due to the newly formed upsurge in the international music markets for his contributions. The celebrated pop star Akon has now collaborated with Rahman for a song titled ‘Beautiful’. A.R.R is also being featured in the video of this track along with the American Pop singer Colby O’ Donis and Canadian hip hop artist Kardinal Offishall. The other person to soon work with the music wizard will be Nicole Scherzinger, the lead singer of the girl band “Pussycat Dolls”. The band had already worked on their English version of the song ‘Jai Ho’ from ‘Slumdog Millionaire’. It looks like Nicole has taken a great liking for Rahman’s kinda music.She will soon start the work on a full album with Rahman. There are also murmurs going around that the composer will be working with the gorgeous lady vocalist from India and a video will also be shot in the typical Bollywood style. http://www.indiaglitz.com/channels/hindi/article/45648.html -- regards, Vithur
