A.R Rahman on a new Talent Hunt for Musical Bands

It is the era of Talent Hunts and Star Voice of India is all set to choose the talent of India but only individual. Here is something for all you bands out there who have formed groups dedicated to music. The hunt is for the best music band and is conducted by our world music genius A.R Rahman and actor-singer Vasundhara Das. As an answer to the all the famous talent hunts that restricted themselves to North of India, this particular talent hunt is exclusive for the bands in South India. Once the hunt becomes popular it will be extended to the whole of India. And both Rahman and Vasundhara Das have reasons for this southern specific bend. “I could say that Chennai is the cultural capital of India, in Carnatic music and so many other things.So being in the South and being launched from here is very important,” says Rahman. “I’ve grown up in Bangalore and I can see what comes out of the city. It’s just huge, the potential. There are so many people and so many different forms of music playing for underground audiences who don’t listen to mainstream music,” adds Vasundhara. So let us see how this talent hunt with a difference, changes the trend. Get ready southerners with your Musical Band, Rahman is on his way.
