The Mozart of Madras

The Mozart of Madras, A.R. Rahman celebrates his 43rd birthday today (6th January 2009). Rahman forayed into the film industry with Roja, a film that was directed by the master storyteller Mani Rathnam. Roja success ensured Rahman’s stay in the film industry. This talented musician teamed up with the acclaimed Andrew Lloyd Webber for Bombay Dreams and won accolades from all quarters. He also was a part of the Michael Jackson's Micheal Jackson & Friends concert in the year 1999 making his countrymen proud. Rahman’s latest venture Slumdog Millionaire has also turned out to be chartbuster. I wish this talented musician a very happy birthday and many more happy returns of the day.
