Luckily I Am Not Yet 50: AR Rahman On His 49th Birthday
Oscar-winning composer AR Rahman, who turned 49 today, thanked his fans for inspiring him to churn out "beautiful music" every year. The musician pledged to make the world a beautiful place on his birthday.
"To my dearest friends, fans, family and well-wishers... Thank you for your kind birthday wishes, prayers and affection. You inspire me to work harder and make even more beautiful music. Luckily, I am not yet 50. May the Almighty keep us all united, keep our hearts pure and compassionate. Let us make the world a beautiful place with connected wisdom, love and care," Rahman posted on his Facebook page.
Rahman was born in Chennai on January 6, 1966 as S Dileep Kumar. The musical genius lost his musician father RK Sekar when he was only nine years and had to support the family.
Starting his career by composing ad jingles, Rahman was approached by Mani Ratnam to compose the score and soundtrack for his Tamil film Roja. The music of the film became a hit, giving Rahman a Best Music Director trophy at the National Film Awards.
