A.R. Rahman bags WEF Crystal Award

Indian music maestro A.R. Rahman has bagged yet another prestigious award! He was conferred with the Crystal Award of the World Economic Forum (WEF) on Wednesday at the opening ceremony of its annual meet of the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. Around 2,500 global leaders from more than 11 countries from the field of art, culture, business and religion attended the event.

Rahman, 44, received the award given to outstanding artists who use their talent for social and charitable work. Earlier this week, Rahman received two nominations at the Annual Academy Awards for the original score in Danny Boyle's 127 Hours and the original song 'If I Rise' for the same movie.
