AR Rahman has big plans for celebrating his 25 years in music.

Thats right folks, it's been 25 years since the maestro got on everyone's radar with his work in Mani Ratnam's Roja. Feel old yet?

To commemorate his silver jubilee, the two-time oscar winner is planning a multi-city tour titled AR Rahman ENCORE - The Concert.

According to Indian Express, the tour will travel to Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Mumbai and Delhi and will have many talented musicians from across the country joining the legend on his celebration.

Says AR Rahman about his 25 years in music, "It has been an incredible journey over these last 25 years. Sometimes when I ponder I get goose bumps because the Almighty has been kind in giving me happiness that has only multiplied year after year. I’ve been immensely blessed to have the love and support of my fans, friends and family."

"From husband to father to composer to mentor, I have embraced different roles but the music has always been constant. Music for me serves as the spiritual bond between the audience and myself. I am excited to be performing at home after such a long gap," he adds.

AR Rahman ENCORE - The Concert will take place from November 26 to December 23.

AR Rehman is a talented musician. Almost all the Sufi songs in south Asia are sung in Urdu, Punjabi, Saraiki or Sindhi, AR Rehman cannot pronounce the words in these languages properly whenever he sings. He carries a heavy South Indian accent. Lata jee or Asha jee sang in many languages without any problems.

He comes from an highly intellectual and progressive family who converted to Islam after years of studying and research. That in it self is a remarkable story!
