52nd Annual Grammy Awards Winners

52nd Annual Grammy Awards Indian Composer and Oscar winner A. R. Rahman scored a double triumph at the 52nd Grammy Awards in Los Angeles on January 31, 2010, scooping two early honours for his music from Oscar-winning film 'Slumdog Millionaire'. Rahman won

the first Grammy of the pre-show at the Staples Center, in the best compilation soundtrack for a motion picture category before his 'Jai Ho' won in the best motion picture song category moments later. "This is insane, God is great again," Rahman said as he accepted his second award before a VIP audience.

Beyonce became the most decorated woman on a Grammy night as she collected six trophies, including Song of the Year for her anthem Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It), but

it was another diva—Taylor Swift —who nabbed the top honour, Album Of the Year, for her best-selling Fearless.

Taylor Swift won a total of four awards.
