According to reports, as rahman and his wife saira bhanu entered the stage, the show's host asked saira bhanu to briefly discuss Rahman's accomplishments. Quickly, rahman requested that she talk in tamil rather than Hindi. The footage, however, makes it appear as though rahman was making fun of his wife's poor Tamil.
When the video was fact-checked, it was evident that rahman was joking when he said, "Yes, it was an award I won for a tamil movie at the tamil film awards." There is nothing wrong with it at all, and it is obviously propaganda meant to defame the music creator. rahman avoids controversy, and he typically doesn't reply to any criticism or unfavorable remarks made about him.
