A.R. Rahman ever since his debut in Mani Ratnam's 'Roja' has not only created the best film music of this era but has continuously elevated Indian cinema on the world stage. He made Tamil Nadu proud by winning the twin Oscars for his movie 'Slumdog Millionaire' and many more international recognition that preceded and succeeded that.
