Being an international celebrity hasn’t proven to be the easy task that AR Rahman thought it would be. Following his Oscars, BAFTA and Golden Globe, the music composer is having a hard time keeping prowling media eyes at bay.

The composer, who has always been the darling of the media in South India, turned to a national sensation with films like ‘Rangeela’, ‘Taal’ and ‘Dil Se’. With the advent of the electronic media, the composer has had a harder time acceding to media requests, also owing to his completely unearthly working hours.

And now, things seem to have gotten out of control with his international honours and projects. And so, the composer has decided to keep himself from media glare. Journalists are left clueless about his activities, where he is and what his travel plans are. He is also developing more hideouts, to work in peace.
