🎵 Jai Ho Composer Truth – A.R. Rahman vs Ram Gopal Varma Claim An educational clarification in support of A.R. Rahman. A claim was made that “Jai Ho” was not composed by A.R. Rahman, but by Sukhwinder Singh. This is factually incorrect. Let the music itself speak. The Tamil song “Ellam Pughalam Iraivan Oruvanuke” (2007), composed by A.R. Rahman, is based on the classical Carnatic raaga Shankarabharanam. When we observe the opening melodic phrase, it carries Rahman’s distinct musical signature.
