He has done it. The magician, the true magician from Chennai, India has done it. But was not he already bigger than the oscars? From the fresh youth projected in Roja, to the haunting melodies of Boambay, to the terrorising passion in Dil Se, to the revoloution in Rang De Basanti, to the money-less riches of Slumdog Millionaire, he was always sure to rise above all.

On Sunday night (February 22) at the 81st annual Academy Awards, the film about an impoverished Mumbai orphan living out a fairy tale continued its charmed life, as “Slumdog Millionaire” took home eight statues, including wins for Best Picture and Best Director.

After nabbing four awards at the Golden Globes in January, “Slumdog” made good on its front-runner status, winning in all but one of the nine categories in which it was nominated (it had two nominations in the Best Original Song category).

And after this oscar win, Rahman goes even more immortal.
