We can no longer just listen to a singer belt out his greatest hits. We are not content to hum along, clap in time, or even dance. In this age of hyper-connectivity, have we lost the ability to live in the moment? Seema Goswami writes...
Last week in Chennai, I had my first experience of an AR Rahman concert.

And Rahman did not disappoint, playing all his biggest hits and then some, with Hariharan and Sukhwinder coming on to do their bits.
