Victory Entertainments has taken on the mantle as promoter in the UK, and director Vijay Galani is looking forward to bringing one of the world’s biggest stars to the UK saying,” A R Rahman is a huge international star now, he’s bigger than the Bollywood heroes. This is set to be a phenomenal world tour, with 20 breath-taking shows.
