A R Rahman to hold concert for raising funds for Tamil film industry workers particularly lightmen

A R Rahman, known for his iconic film compositions, is set to host a concert in Chennai to raise funds for the struggling film workers, specially the Tamil film industry lightmen. The concert announcements were made by president of the film industry workers’ body Film Employees Federation of South India (FEFSI) RK Selvamani.

The concert, which will be held on March 19 at Nehru Stadium in Chennai, is set to feature some of Rahman's most popular compositions, performed by the maestro himself and a team of talented musicians. The event is expected to draw a large crowd, with fans of the musician and supporters of the cause coming together to celebrate the contribution of lightmen to the film industry.




This initiative by Rahman is a tribute to the hard work and dedication of the lightmen, who are an integral part of the filmmaking process. Often working long hours in challenging conditions, they play a crucial role in ensuring that the lighting is just right, creating the perfect ambiance for each scene. Despite their essential role, however, they are often undervalued and underpaid.

Through his music, Rahman hopes to draw attention to the plight of lightmen and provide them with the financial support they need.
