The spelling of its title was changed to make it more like a Tamil film to get tax exemption!
The audio released last weekend is selling like hot cakes. As per information from the two of leading music outlets in Chennai, i.e Landmark and Music World, the cassettes are fast vanishing from their shelves compared to other audio releases, and they are expecting a record sale. Rahman has come out with seven sizzling songs targeting youths. The pick of the lot are “New York Nagaram” and “Munbe Va”, and Vaali’s lyrics as usual add strength to Rahman’s work.
With several young music composers including Yuvanshankar, Harris Jayaraj, Joshua Sridhar, and many more waiting to jump into the fray, it needed a special effort from Rahman to reassert his supremacy. Rahman has responded to the pressure and has come up with a mix of melody and fast numbers.
Rahman’s other project Manirathnam’s ‘Guru’ is expected to hit the stands by Deepavali and with Sillunu Oru Kadhal rocking the city, the magician is back.
hahahahahaha ayyayo SOK mega hit album. Now come with all your critics. But the fact is it's going to create a record.
