Osca nominations for A R Rehman again

Los Angeles, Jan 25 (IANS) Indian music maestro A.R. Rahman has done it again! He received two nominations Tuesday for the 83rd Annual Academy Awards for the original score in Danny Boyle's '127 Hours' as well as original song 'If I Rise' for the same movie.

The composer, who won a double Oscar for his work in 'Slumdog Millionaire' in 2009, is now vying for the golden statuette for the original score with John Powell ('How To Train Your Dragon'), Hans Zimmer ('Inception'), Alexandre Desplat ('The King's Speech'), Trent Rezmor and Atticus Ross ('The Social Network') in the original music category.

Rahman is sharing his nomination for best song category with Dido and Rolo Armstrong, who have penned the lyrics of 'If I Rise'.

In a recent interview with IANS, Rahman had said he would be happy to receive a nomination, but isn't expecting an award this time.

'I'll be happy if I get nominations but I've got enough Oscars already for one lifetime. I don't think I'll get an Oscar. I'll enjoy the function and see it, but I don't think I'll be getting it,' he said.
Soon after he lost out on the Golden Globe award for '127 Hours', the 45-year-old received a nomination for the same project at the British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) awards.

He also won the Best Original Song award at the 16th Critics' Choice Movie awards for '127 Hours' that is releasing in India Wednesday.

Oscars are sour for some Hollywood stars

Oscars are definitely the biggest award for any actor, director, producer rather I'd say any artist related with cinema. An oscar ward certifies the talent of an actor however there are still many super stars in the hollywood that never won an oscar in there lifetime. Some were lucky to get nominations and some even didnt get any nomination still they will remain the super stars of hollywood. But sometime in there life these stars and the fans may regret them not winning the oscars.

Here is the list of actors who never won the oscars:




  • Leonardo DiCaprio - He bacame a known face with Titanic and has been nominated 3 times and his role in Aviator was very much appreciated. Other noticalbe performances by him include his roles in Blood Diamond and Shutter Island



  • Marilyn Monroe - She was most beautiful actoress of her time. In her tragic life she was more known for her beauty than the actin skills still she gave some good performances in movies like Bus Stop and The Misfits



  • Arnold Schwanganzer: The terminatos of hollywood never won any oscar and I doubt he was ever nominated for any oscars.


  • Johnny Depp - He has played small role before he bacame a known face in hollywood after he potrayed the role of Captain Jack Sparrow in The Pirates of the Carribean series of movies. I saw him a chance of winning oscars in near future.



  • Peter O'Toole : Most unlucky actor in Hollywood, he got nominated eight times but neve won any.
