Slumdog Millionaire has won 10 Oscar nominations, but what thrills me more is 3 nominations for Rehman, a musician of extraordinary versatility.He truly deserves the accolades and awards bestowed upon him.I am an ardent fan of his music and for me his every work is a masterpiece. He is a maverick composer who understands the nuances of music very well which is pretty much evident from the variety of instrument used, ranging from shehnai to keyboard in his songs.His music is very soothing and have wide swathe of musical genres from classical to western.
He is also an excellent singer and his melodious voice has produced many chart busters.Early in his career he was not given the due credit and industry pundits brush aside him as a ordinary composer. But soon he bounced back and produced back to back hits which restored his tumbling career and since then he has never looked back and today he is widely reckoned as the best music composer of India.
He has always set high standards for his music and strikes gold with every new release.What makes him even more special is his down to earth attitude who lets his work speak for him.
I hope that he will bring more laurels to the country and the industry.
He is the future of music industry in India and I wish him more success in the coming years.
