Alexandre Desplat for 'The Grand Budapest Hotel', Alexandre Desplat for 'The Imitation Game', Hans Zimmer for 'Interstellar', Gary Yershon for 'Mr Turner' and Johann Johannsson for 'The Theory of Everything' have been nominated in the best original score category at this year's Oscar.
"I don't have any expectations from it. I think God has been kind to me and this is just a stop in my long journey," Rahman reporters ahead of the announcements when asked about his chance at winning a nomination.
