A R Rahman in Concert!
The multi oscar-multi grammy-multi national award winning Mozart of Madras doesn’t need any introduction at all. We really really really glad to announce Padma Bhushan A R Rahman is going on a World tour this summer and even more glad to anounce that we’re one of the very few and first to put this up for you!
For the trek, Rahman is collaborating with creative director Amy Tinkman, who has worked to create concerts for Britney Spears, the Backstreet Boys and Mariah Carey. The tour will not only feature Rahman’s music, but also dance arrangements and acrobatics inspired by his native India. A press release described the concert as a “theatrical experience” utilizing “new technologies.”
The announcement comes after Rahman took part in the 2010 remake of “We Are The World” to benefit Haiti. Performances on the A.R. Rahman Jai Ho Concert: The Journey Home World Tour will include songs from Slumdog Millionaire as well as the Indian films Lagaan, Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na, Dil Se, Rang De Basanti and Roja’.
