AR
Rahman
celebrated
World
Music
Day
with
a
special
video
on
his
YouTube
channel.
The
music
composer
dedicated
it
to
singer
Sukhwinder
Singh
and
celebrated
the
partnership
that
they
have
shared
for
almost
25
years.
In
the
clip,
he
also
recalled
how
he
forgot
to
thank
the
singer
after
the
infamous
Oscar
win.
Rahman
revealed
that
they
first
collaborated
on
a
Bulle
Shah
poem
for
the
film
Thakshak,
which
was
later
changed
to
‘Chaiyya
Chaiyya’
for
Dil
Se.
Talking
about
Slumdog
Millionaire‘s
‘Jai
Ho’
sung
by
Sukhwinder
Singh,
Tanvi
Shah,
Mahalaxmi
Iyer
and
Vijay
Prakash,
he
added,
“When
I
thanked
everyone
at
the
Oscars,
I
left
out
the
singers’
names
because
of
all
the
chaos
in
my
mind.
And
I
am
really
grateful
to
Sukhwinder
Singh
who
sang
the
main
part.
Sukhwinder’s
unique
voice
took
the
song
to
another
level.”
Thanking
the
group
he
added,
“Undeniably.
I
am
really
grateful
for
his
patience,
love
and
his
musicality.” Praising
Sukhwinder’s
work
and
passion
for
music,
he
said,
“There
is
a
sense
of
a
vagabond
in
certain
artistes.
You
can’t
put
a
line
or
a
border
to
some
artistes,
and
Sukhwinder
is
such
an
artiste.
It’s
always
triggered
by
boundless
energy.”

two
Academy
Awards
for
‘Jai
Ho’
in
2009
in
the
categories
Best
Original
Score
and
Best
Original
Song.
At
the
time
he
had
said,
“Before
coming
here
I
was
excited
and
terrified.
The
last
time
I
felt
that
way
was
when
I
was
getting
married.
There
is
a
Hindi
dialogue,
‘mere
pass
ma
hai’
which
means,
even
if
I
have
got
nothing,
I
have
my
mother
here.
I
want
to
thank
her
for
coming
all
the
way
to
support
me.”
The
legendary
composer

song

Hours.
