A R Rahman pleases his fans


A R Rahman pleases his fans

The most-awaited album of the year Shivaji was released in Kerala last week.

In the film Sivaji -- The Boss which has the biggest Tamil cinema stalwarts lined up under highly reputed AVM banner -- director Shankar, lyricists Valee, Vairamuthu, Pa Vijay, Muthukumar, superstar Rajinikanth in the title role, the composer A R Rahman has lived up to his name has delivered half a dozen songs which will be chart toppers for the season.

A R Rahman's compositions fly ahead of the trends, as usual by a trend setter, but the lyricists have milked Rajnikanth's screen image to the fullest painting a larger than life picture of the hero comparing him to the sun, moon and even Shiva the destroyer with lines like 'he can even turn Tamil Nadu into Americas.'

Thousands of albums were sold from each major outlet in the first couple of days in the state and this is good news especially when concerns were expressed about the lean phases of music industry.
