Music maestro A R Rahman created history by becoming the first Indian to win Golden Globe award for his music score for 'Slumdog Millionaire' at the prestigious award ceremony on Monday.
Rahman's song 'Jai Ho,' penned by lyricist Gulzar, has won the coveted prize of Best Original Music Score at the Golden Globes.
The film which depicts the story of a Mumbai underdog's rags-to-riches run, is on a winning spree and has so far bagged three Golden Globe awards – Best Original Music
