Music maestro A R Rahman, who scripted history by becoming the first Indian to get
the Golden Globe honour for 'Slumdog Millionaire' has
revealed that he was terrified
just before the awards as he did not want to disappoint the one billion Indians.
Rahman bagged the Golden Globe award for Best Original Music Score for 'Slumdog Millionaire', a rags-to-riches story of a Mumbai slumdweller.
Directed by British filmmaker Danny Boyle, the film bagged four prestigious awards including the Best Motion Picture.
Rahman said his award is dedicated to one billion Indians.
"I think more than what if I had wanted this...for me it is an award but for Indians it is a great deal. I feel proud about it. After all those low in the last couple of months it is great to see all the happiness and positivity," the musician said referring to the recent terror attacks on Mumbai.
"It is great. I am so excited I have never been so excited for any other award," he said in an interview to NDTV.
Rahman also revealed that he was uncertain about taking up the project initially due to his busy schedule and stopped short of saying no.
