Rahman is renowned for both his musical contributions and his international collaborations. Director Mani Ratnam took notice of him, and Rahman began composing the music for his Tamil movie “Roja.” Later on, he also worked for Bombay and Dil Se. He received two Oscars. He has also received six national film awards and the Padma Bhushan.

Kartik previously announced metaverse space

India’s first music NFTs were previously announced by Tamil singer Karthik, who will perform in the metaverse. As part of his metaverse concept, Karthik launched the music NFTs on April 14. As one of India’s first NFT marketplaces, Jupiter Meta will list the NFTs.

The introduction of NFT is a turning point for the music business because it will grant artists ownership of their creative output and put them in touch with their fans. NFTs will benefit artists and creators in a variety of ways. These music videos will encourage a sense of ownership and financial flexibility in their listeners.
