A.R. Rahman's at it, again
A.R. Rahman double Oscar-winning Indian composer has bagged a Golden Globe nomination for Danny Boyle's 127 Hours, having already won the trophy once for Slumdog Millionaire in 2009.
It doesn't get bigger than this for A.R. Rahman. The double Oscar-winning Indian composer has bagged a Golden Globe nomination for Danny Boyle's 127 Hours, having already won the trophy once for Slumdog Millionaire in 2009.
Rahman won two Oscars and a Golden Globe for his number Jai ho in the movie.
The Chennai-based composer is competing in the same section as before — Original Score for a motion picture category — with the likes of Alexandre Desplat (The King's Speech), Danny Elfman (Alice in Wonderland), Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross (The Social Network) and Hans Zimmer (Inception).
Bollywood was on cloud nine with its leading musician's feat.
"AR Rahman nominated for Golden Globe for 127 Hours score. Marching to another Oscar?" tweeted filmmaker Shekhar Kapur.
The soundtrack of 127 Hours includes the popular song If I Rise, a collaboration between Rahman and pop star Dido.
