A.R. Rahman is known for his versatile music and has created some of the best-known music for almost two decades now.

The clip ended with Eminemâs 2002 film â8Mileâ and then he himself performed âLose yourselfâ to which he got a much-deserved standing ovation.

He also tweeted, âLook, if you had another shot, another opportunity⦠Thanks for having me @TheAcademy. Sorry it took me 18 years to get here.â
