The Hindu A.R. Rahman

Double Oscar winner A.R. Rahman, who composed the Commonwealth Games theme song ‘Yaaro India Bula Liya', on Friday said he was “sorry” his number had attracted criticism in some quarters.

“I am sorry if I have let anybody down on this but definitely I am proud of the composition and the anthem,” the famed composer said.

He, however, said there was a positive reaction when the theme song was tested on people from different nationalities.

“Of course, some people did not like it and it became a huge controversy,” he said.

Rahman said in his view the number was “great” during the opening day ceremony.

“It had lovely feedback from Australia, England and all those places, who had not heard about the controversy and they loved the song,” he added.
