## Bio

Born A. S. Dileep Kumar in 1967, Rahman launched his film-scoring career in the early 1990s with Roja, working out of his own Panchathan Record Inn studio. A string of Tamil hits followed - Bombay, Kaadhalan, Thiruda Thiruda, Gentleman - earning him the nickname "Isai Puyal" (Musical Storm) and later "Mozart of Madras." His 2008 score for Slumdog Millionaire swept the 81st Academy Awards, taking Best Original Score and Best Original Song for "Jai Ho," then added two Grammys in 2010. By then he had amassed seven National Film Awards, fifteen Filmfare Awards, and eighteen Filmfare Awards South. India gave him the Padma Bhushan in 2010; Time named him one of the world's most influential people in 2009. In 2017 he directed and wrote Le Musk, and in 2024 Trinity Laban made him Honorary President.
