Almost two years ago to the day, Oscar-winning musician A.R. Rahman dropped in on the Khaleej Times office to talk about his then new project, One Heart: The A.R. Rahman Concert Film, and now we have the opportunity to welcome the maestro back to Dubai in November. Headlining City Walk's Cocoa-Cola Arena for one night only on November 15, the Jai Ho creator will be joined by extra special guests to be announced over the coming weeks.
Described as the world's most prominent and prolific film composer by Time Magazine, Rahman has an extensive trophy collection including two Academy Awards, two Grammy Awards, four National Film Awards and even a Golden Globe. Tickets are priced from Dhs50 on www.doneevents.com
Last time we spoke, Rahman had nothing but praise for Dubai and its perennial quest for increased happiness.
"Happiness is in our mindsets. You can easily get depressed if you read news today. I believe that you should give hope to people by balancing the bad news with something hopeful. Music can play a great part in creating peace and calmness of mind. A society with inner peace progresses and reflects it much more."
