Not to mention awards: the LA Critics Association chose him for their pick for Best Score (the Slumdog again), and he has just been nominated for his first ever Golden Globe, in the august company of Hans Zimmer, James Howard, Alexandre Desplat, and (surprise!) Clint Eastwood. That's a trivia question prediction (until perhaps the Oscars list :-)). The Oscar march has truly begun.
Back to Connections. Karthik on his Milliblog points out how anyone not buying a Nokia phone with a certain kind of music service will just have to wait a while to hear the songs (in the legal way, at least). For now, you can check out the video for Jiya Se Jiya on Rahman's official site (warning: all flash content).
Which is where our friend Arnold, a.ka. Hugger-the-(not-so)-Horrible, should take note: the song features the concept of "Free Hugs" (read Arnold's first (zeroth?) hand report on the same). I wonder if I actually saw him in the video?

may be you alluded to it but anyway
tattoo it on your chest, your arms that you forgot Ghajini!
Santosh: Indeed I did :-) Very appropriately ironic!
I was thinking that this a prolific year by ARR standards. Trust you to post on this while I was just thinking of this :)
Slumdog is ARR's best shot at the Oscar & Golden Globes yet - very high buzz unlike his earlier international scores. That it's a genuine tour de force is pure bonus
