Composing a stirring panegyric on the achievements of AR Rahman should be easy but surprisingly it is not, simply because everything that can possibly be said about his brilliance has already been said and every superlative in the world has been used many times over on his account. That says more than enough about this great man. He has proved time and again that nobody can make soul-stirring music the way he does on a national as well as international levels.

ARR is the proud holder of two Academy awards, two Grammys, a BAFTA and a Golden Globe award. He has also been conferred honorary doctorates from the Trinity College of Music, Aligarh Muslim University, Anna University and Middlesex University. In addition to this he has been honored with the Padma Bhushan and Padmashri awards.

This year marks his 20th year in the film industry and in honor of the occasion; Behindwoods will take you on a musical journey across his 20 most popular film albums which represent some of his finest work.
