Hyderabad prepares for A.R. Rahman's grand 'Wonderment Tour' concert

Following a triumphant, sold-out engagement in Mumbai, Oscar and Grammy-winning composer, songwriter and global music icon A.R. Rahman is set to bring his critically acclaimed ‘The Wonderment Tour’ to Hyderabad. While Mumbai’s show was part of the international Wonderment Tour’s global premiere, Hyderabad is being designed as a bespoke, standalone stadium concert.Scheduled for November 8th, 2025, at Ramoji Film City, this marks Rahman's much-anticipated return to Hyderabad after an eight-year hiatus, following his iconic ‘Encore Tour’ in 2017, which celebrated a quarter-century in music. Now, ‘The Wonderment Tour’ commemorates three decades of his profound influence on the music industry-serving as a sonic odyssey through Rahman’s most iconic homegrown and international film scores, cherished soundtracks and innovative new material. The tour's global premiere earlier this year captivated an audience of 50,000 in Mumbai, transforming the live concert experience through a fusion of breathtaking visuals, compelling narrative transitions, and a transformative soundscape that seamlessly blends cutting-edge technology with timeless emotional resonance. Building on this momentum, ‘The Wonderment Tour’ embarks on its next chapter, with upcoming engagements across the United States and Canada, alongside ‘The Wonderment Hyderabad | A.R. Rahman Live’.The Wonderment Hyderabad | A.R. Rahman Live presented by Hyderabad is a standalone tribute concert crafted exclusively for the city. Personally curated by A.R. Rahman, this concert reflects his longstanding musical connection with Hyderabad and is tailored to its cultural sensibilities, linguistic diversity and emotional resonance. Talking about the event, A.R. Rahman stated, " With Hyderabad, there has always been a reciprocal exchange of musical energy. This concert is dedicated to those who still cherish the experience of live music and the profound immersion it offers. With 'The AR Rahman Live in Concert,' our objective is to convey that every note, every rhythm, narrates a story. I aspire to merge tradition with innovation, bridging the past and the future in a grand celebration of music.”
