According to online music magazine Blender (<a href="http://www.blender.com">www.blender.com</a>), Akon had met Rahman during his visit to Mumbai. During his meeting, they had discussed Akon's new album Freedom and Rahman had even heard a few rough cuts of his tracks. Rahman's cameo happened when he was in the US this year promoting Slumdog Millionaire and performing on various chat night shows (The Tonight show, Oprah Winfrey, etc). u00a0 Rahman appears towards the end of the video dressed in a dapper suit surrounded by the models who pose with him. Even though his cameo is for a few seconds, Akon has revealed in a few interviews prior to the release of his album that he's keen on working with Rahman and is using several Bollywood influences for his next project. u00a0 The video has been under heavy rotation on YouTube since its release (see <a href="http://tinyurl.com/cdcsf2">http://tinyurl.com/cdcsf2</a>).
