A.R. Rahman: Impressing Lord Webber!
Our dynamo-of-talent, music man A.R.Rahman is sure impressing all the right people. First it was Michael Jackson who was taken in by the music of Rahman; and now it is none other than the maestro himself.
Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber (the world renowned composer responsible for the tremendous musicals `Phantom of the Opera', `Ms. Saigon', Starlight Express', `Evita' and `Cats' among other internationally known plays); himself knighted `Lord'; was so taken by the music of `Taal' that he called up AR at once to congratulate him. And that wasn't all. In tandem with Rahman, Lord Webber has at once begun work on a musical project called `Bombay Dream', which will be heavily inspired by Indian music. So that's yet another feather in the multi-talented cap of the young Rahman. Any more and he might fly too. And aren't we ever so proud for him?
