Slumdog Millionaire


A.R. Rahman has worked on many international collaborations in the past, but other than the fact that his soundtracks make big news, they haven't broken so many records ever.



Slumdog Millionaire is not just a versatile album but also an experimental one, as can be seen from the opening number Ringa Ringa - which is based on the rhythm of Choli Ke Peeche Kya Hai. Set in a brothel, Ringa Ringa hardly leaves anything to the imagination and one feels, had it not been for an A-grade international project, the song would not have even reached beyond the Indian censorboard.



Jai Ho is the flagship number of Slumdog Millionaire. Now that the album has won a Golden Globe, Subhash Ghai will be certainly cursing his luck that he allowed this track from Yuvvraaj to be handed over to Slumdog Millionaire.
