The Indian music icon, A. R. Rahman has yet again won not one but three nominations for his music score in films this year. Among the 114 scores in contention for a nomination in the 'Original Score' category for the 87th Oscars, Rahman stands a chance with three mentions.

His composition for 'Million Dollar Arm', 'The Hundred-Foot Journey' and 'Kochadaiiyaan' are part of the long list released by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.

However, the final shortlist for the awards will be announced on January 15, 2015. Till then we will just have to keep our fingers crossed to see whether he makes it to that list as well.
