Rahman said he may have lost projects in Bollywood due to communal bias, the Oscar-winning composer performed at a tribute concert in Mumbai on Saturday to honour Padma Vibhushan Ustad Ghulam Mustafa Khan. The concert was organised by Ustad Ghulam Mustafa Khan’s family on his fifth death anniversary and featured four of his disciples — AR Rahman, Sonu Nigam, Shaan and Hariharan — who came together at Jio World Garden to pay homage to the veteran musician. He spoke about the impact Ustad Ghulam Mustafa Khan had on his life and the lessons he received from him over the years. Shaan also rendered his guru’s ghazal Chale Aao and went on to sing popular film songs including Daastan-e-Om Shanti Om, Deewangi Deewangi, Chaand Sifarish, Dus Bahane and Jabse Tere Naina. He began with Shehzada and followed up with Main Shayar Toh Nahin before switching to Om Shanti Om.
