Ace music composer AR Rahman is a global name. In the year 2009, before he won his first Oscar, Rahman had declined the offer to meet Michael Jackson. He had placed a condition before he met the world famous pop singer. Rahman got a mail from Jackson`s manager saying that he wanted to meet him. The mail came after he was nominated for the Oscars. Rahman said he would meet the singer after he wins the award.
In a video shared by Free Malaysia Today on YouTube, AR Rahman said, “At the beginning of 2009, I was in LA with my agent. He introduced me to another person, his friend, who managed Michael Jackson. I tested my waters. I said, ‘Can I meet Michael Jackson?’ And he said, ‘Sure, I’ll send out an email’. There was no response in the first week. I was just quiet, and I said, ‘It’s fine’.”
