Oscar-winner AR Rahman represented India at Governors Awards 2013 in Los Angeles, California. 

Tweeting a picture, Rahman wrote, ‘Knowing what commitment it takes to do something outside of your comfort zone, I felt Angelina really deserved the love she got from the Academy... For the good work she has done across the war torn areas of our world.' 

‘After two depressing months in the hospital, looking after my mom ... And watch her healing slowly by the good wishes and prayers of loved ones, tonight in LA was therapeutic. Watching deserving people from the Hollywood industry getting huge honors,' he added.

He also met music-composer Mychael Danna and his Indian wife Aparna. ‘Met Mychael Danna and his lovely Indian wife on the way out - though we have worked together in Water, this is the first time we met. Also met Pharrell Williams and Diane Warren... It's back to my studio now...’ he signed off.

Stars like Angela Lansbury, Steve Martin and Italian costume designer Piero Tosi were also awarded the Oscar statuettes at this year's ceremony.
