AR Rahman Records 30-Minute Performance To Support Kamala Harris Campaign

Award-winning Indian music composer AR Rahman has recorded a 30-minute performance video to support Kamala Harris in her presidential campaign, ahead of the US elections this year, making him the first international artist from South Asia to endorse the Vice President of mixed Indian and African origin.

This move is expected to enhance Harris' visibility ahead of the November 5 elections, where she aims to become the first Black woman, and the first woman overall, to serve as President of the United States.

The Asian-American and Pacific Islanders (AAPI) Victory Fund Chairperson, Shekar Narasimhan said, "With this performance, A R Rahman has added his voice to a chorus of leaders and artists who are standing up for progress and representation in America." The AAPI Victory Fund is a political committee which seeks to encourage and mobilize eligible voters who are Asian Americans, as well as native Hawaiians, to step up and contribute to the country's future.
