AR Rahman latest act for Nobel concert

Oscar winning composer AR Rahman has been confirmed to perform at the annual Nobel Peace Prize Concert.

Rahman, who picked up two Academy Awards for his work on Slumdog Millionaire, joins Barry Manilow and Jamiroquai in the line-up of artists to perform at the concert.

The concert on December 11 will pay tribute to this year’s Nobel Peace Prize laureate, human rights activist Liu Xiaobo, who is currently incarcerated as a political prisoner in China.

The concert will be held at the Oslo Spektrum arena in Norway and be hosted by Denzel Washington. His co-host is yet to be announced.

Last year’s concert, which paid tribute to 2009 laureate Barack Obama, was hosted by Will Smith and wife Jada Pinkett Smith.
