Rahman's song Jai Ho, penned by lyricist Gulzar, has won the coveted prize of Best Original Music Score at the Golden Globes.
What stupidity! How could a song win a prize for Original Music Score? Don't these guys know that Best Song & Best Score are two different awards! & Jai Ho wasn't even nominated!

Rahman's song Jai Ho, penned by lyricist Gulzar, has won the coveted prize of Best Original Music Score at the Golden Globes. The film which depicts the story of a Mumbai underdog's rags-to-riches run, is on a winning spree and has so far bagged three Golden Globe awards -- Best Original Music Score for Rahman, Best Screenplay for Simon Beaufoy and Best Director for Danny Boyle. 'Slumdog' is based on a novel by Indian diplomat Vikash Swarup and stars Bollywood actors Anil Kapoor and Irrfan Khan in lead among others. The film has been shot at various locations in Mumbai, including the railway Victoria Terminus, which was targetted by terrorists on November 26, last year. Boyle's feel-good film depicts the moving story of a slumdweller Jamaal, who goes on to win $20 million on Indian reality show Who Wants to Be A Millionaire? in a bid to win his love back. With its golden run at the Globe awards, 'Slumdog's prospects at Oscar awards next month have brightened.http://www.hindusta ntimes.com/ StoryPage/ StoryPage. aspx?sectionName =HomePage&id=0c2b2243- 450c-49b9- aa68-6f551d11b08 7&&Headline=Rahman+ creates+history% 2c+first+ Indian+to+ win+Golden+ Globe -- regards, Vithur Recent Activity 91 New Members Visit Your Group Y!
