AR Rahman’s next project has been confirmed. The Academy Award winning musician is all set to play the composer for an exciting Hollywood flick. ‘Couples Retreat’!

The film will be directed by Peter Pelensky, and has Vince Vaughn, Christine Bell a Jason Bateman playing important roles.

This is Rahman’s first commercial typical Hollywood film, which falls on the romantic comedy genre. Earlier, he made waves internationally as the composer of ‘Slumdog Millionaire’ and won two academy awards as well for it, but the film based in Mumbai, had Indian music.

This film should serve as the litmus test for AR Rahman, as the film will feature proper Western music, in which the composer has received formal training.
