No one expects the bottom to fall on. R.
World tour of Rahman
It is estimated that he is a Bollywood superstar and a prolific film composer who has sold more than 0. 35 billion albums worldwide and has been honored as a music semi-God among Indian expatriates. In the U. S.
Of course, Rahman is best known for the behind-the-scenes blackhands of the Slumdog Millionaire soundtrack, who has been caught twice at the Oscars, one Golden Globe and two Grammy Awards, because he contributed to the popular 2008 independent romance.

After initially delaying the Detroit-Toronto appointment, Rahman made a painful decision on Tuesday night to postpone his trip to North America in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Vancouver. While rebuilding the set, Canada and Houston are scrambling to determine which elements of the current episode can be saved.
A spokeswoman for Rahman said there was no plan to cancel the trip to Europe;

For the most part of 2009, he was collecting awards and bathed in light.
