ARR apologized for his CWG Theme Song

Little Mozart A.R Rahman, the composer of the Commonwealth Game’s Theme Song  ‘Yaaro India Bula Liya’, apologised a day back and said he was “sorry” if this track has displeased anybody after it involved controversies.

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