And I am no expert in PR or Events Promotions.. But, right from the start, I have been having this feeling that this certainly wasn't the way to do an AR's concert. Even after the oscars, even after all the media coverages and interviews.. 90% of his fans still remain South Asian community. because, the rest of the world have only heard Jai Ho and Slumdog Millionaire. And that is not a good enough reason to go to an expensive concert. I felt that promoters were trying to promote a big show rather than AR Rahman himself. if you look at the promo videos.. they are all about how grand this show is.. how good the technologies are used for the show etc.. But, not much about his music. I think, that is not going to do any good for AR Rahman or his music.
