AR Rahman prays in Delhi

Oscar winner AR Rahman leaves no chance to pay a quick visit to Nizamuddin dargah whenever he is in the capital, and this Friday was no different for him. Rahman was in town for half a day for the launch of an independent music label over the weekend and it's then that he also paid a visit to the dargah. He arrived there at around 6.30am and spent over 45 minutes praying at the sufi shrine.
He apparently also brought along a music CD that he wanted to seek blessings for. Dargah official Syed Afsar Ali Nizami, told us, "Rahman bhai came to pray unannounced, like he always does, and stayed for a short while.
He also asked baba for blessings for a new CD that he'd got. We also prayed for him after he'd left and asked for blessings for all his work." Just a day before, on Thursday night, "Rockstar" director Imtiaz Ali and Pakistani actress Iman Ali too had come to pray at the dargah, said Nizami, adding, "Imtiaz bhai shot "Rockstar" here at the dargah, and after that he's come here a few times. This time he simply came to pray and left soon after doing that."
