Filmmaker Shekhar Kapur has stated that music maestro AR Rahman has often faced difficulties in Bollywood due to his Oscar wins. Kapur made a remark after Rahman’s recent interview with Rdio Mirchi where he said there was a ‘gang’ working against him in the Hindi Film industry, resulting in less work in Bollywood.
Taking to Twitter, Shekhar Kapur shared an excerpt from his interview and wrote, “You know what your problem is @arrahman? You went and got #Oscars. An Oscar is the kiss of death in Bollywood. It proves you have more talent than Bollywood can handle.
