Last year, he created history by becoming the first Indian to win two Oscars on the same night. This year, Indian music composer A R Rahman might walk away with yet another golden man as his song ‘Na Na’ from the Hollywood movie ‘Couples Retreat’ has been shortlisted for nomination to the 82nd Academy Awards to be held in February.
However, it’s still a long way for the number to be nominated as 63 songs from other composers are also in the shortlist.
At the launch of the film’s soundtrack on Monday, Rahman revealed that ‘Na Na’ had been shortlisted and he expressed hope that the song would make it to the nomination list when the Oscar nominees are announced on Feburary 2.
“It is my first Hollywood film and it is good to have started with a comedy flick,” Rahman is quoted to have said.
Rahman had been flooded with offers from Hollywood after taking the west by storm with his Oscar winning track ‘Jai Ho’ from Slumdog Millionaire.
