Ilayaraja has a unique reputation not only in the world of Tamil cinema but also globally. Recently, there have been various criticisms about him who may have composed music for various films in South Indian language films.
In this way, you can read information about Ilayaraja, who at one point rejected SP Balasubramaniam, who sang most of the songs in Ilayaraja’s music, and which singer he introduced to sing in his music after he did so.
No need for SPB, Malaysia Vasudevan is enough..
Not much needs to be said about SP Balasubramaniam who is one of the most prolific singers not only in the Tamil film industry but also in the South Indian film industry.
Even today his song is listened to by the young generation. He also has a very good voice and has sung a large number of songs in the films of leading actors and is the owner of various awards.
Do you know how Ilayaraja gave him various opportunities to sing in his music in the beginning but he gave Malaysia Vasudevan, who was a singer in a Tamil group in Malaysia, an opportunity to become a playback singer?
He has sung in many groups in Malaysia and was introduced as a stage singer by joining Ilayaraja’s group when Vasudevan, who was acting in stage plays, came to Chennai.
It was after this that they started to call him Malaysia Vasudevan after adding his town to the name of Vasudevan.
Ilayaraja’s little incident..
In this case, if you tell about the opportunity that Malaysia Vasudevan got to sing the song Emmanasu Thangam as an open song for Superstar Rajinikanth in the movie Murattu Kalai, you will be amazed.
Apart from that, Malaysia Vasudevan has sung many hit songs for Rajinikanth. After this, he started acting as a villain in the film world in 1977 due to his interest in acting.
However, his performance in Diary of a Prisoner in 1985 was praised by many. After this, he also composed music for a few films in the 1980s such as Samanthipoo, Paku Vetelai and Ayaar Kaigal.
After this, don’t you want to know how this person who used to sing in the group became a background singer?. SBB was a little late to come to the studio as he had to sing a song composed by Ilayaraja.
After this, Ilayaraja asked SBB to sing the song once and SBB’s throat was tied and his voice was not coming out properly. So Ilayaraja got Malaysia Vasudevan to sing.
That song is the song called Atkutty Tadhaiittu which was released in the movie 16 Vayathinile. Not only did this song become a huge hit among fans, he also became a big singer after Patti Tank became popular.
After this, they have made Ilayaraja, who gave opportunity to Malaysia Vasudevan and made it a topic of conversation everywhere on the internet.
