Nevada (US), Dec 2 (ANI): Oscar winner A. R. Rahman will write the score of "Street Dancing" with Golden Globe winner English musician David A. Stewart, according to reports.
Directed by Bille Woodruff (Beauty Shop) and scripted by David B.

Acclaimed Indo-American statesman Rajan Zed has applauded Rahman for creating a bridge between the music of east and west and for strengthening the worldwide market and stature of Indian music.
East-West cultural collaboration was "a step in the right direction", Zed, who is chairperson of Indo-American Leadership Confederation, added.
