The Mozart of Madras, AR Rahman may have missed his Oscars at the 83rd Annual Academy Awards to Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross for The Social Network and Randy Newman for Toy Story 3, under the Original Score and Original Song category, but he did not fail to charm his audience with a powerful performance on stage.

AR Rahman performed his Oscar nominated song, 'If I Rise', from the film 127 Hours with Florence.
Flo stood in for Dido. The tune ultimately lost out to Randy Newman's We Belong Together from Toy Story 3. However in the end Randy Newman shared his Oscar joy with AR Rahman.
Here is AR Rahman performing at the 83rd Oscars.
AR Rahman walked the red carpet with wife Saira, wearing a tuxedo while his wife chose a fusion ensemble of a golden sherwani and cigarette pants.
