A.R. Rahman – Jai Ho Concert – The Journey Home World Tour

For the trek, Rahman is collaborating with creative director Amy Tinkman, who has worked to create concerts for Britney Spears, the Backstreet Boys and Mariah Carey. The tour will not only feature Rahman’s music, but also dance arrangements and acrobatics inspired by his native India. A press release described the concert as a “theatrical experience” utilizing “new technologies.”

The announcement comes after Rahman took part in the 2010 remake of “We Are The World” to benefit Haiti.
