A R Rahman-Golden Globe Award
The Golden Globe is a coveted award and it is a rare honour for an Indian music director. By winning it, competing with composers from around the world, Rahman has not only proved his worth, but has also conveyed to the world that, given a chance, an Indian music director can deservedly vie with any composer in the world.

Rahman won the prestigious award for his musical score in the song "Jai Ho", for which Gulzar penned the lyrics. The song is a typical Rahman number and the composer stuck to his signature style while composing it.

The international recognition that Rahman has earned for himself makes every Indian proud.
"Slumdog Millionaire" bagged four Golden Globe Awards. Apart from Rahman, the movie won the awards for best motion picture, best screenplay(Simon Beaufoy) and best director (Danny Boyle).

That "Slumdog Millionaire" will sweep the Golden Globe Awards was a foregone conclusion after critics from around the world hailed the film.

Based on Vikas Swarup's novel "Q & A", the film starring Dev Patel, Freida Pinto and Anil Kapoor, is releasing in India Jan 23.

After winning the Golden Globe, Rahman is looking forward to bagging an Oscar for his soundtrack for "Slumdog Milloinaire".

Rahman is now all set to enthral his fans with his upcoming projects "Delhi-6" and "Blue".
