Living legend, music composer Ilaiyaraaja, who AR Rahman calls an inspiration, is a recluse in every sense of the word as he lets his work do the talking.
The three-time National Award winner says, “I’m an ordinary man. I can’t pinpoint and tell you what my inspiration is or how I make music. I think it just happens when you sit down and listen to your soul. I have always made music from my soul. How I feel from within after listening to the lyrics or the mood, I compose and I’m grateful that people have liked my work.”
Ilaiyaraaja is composing for Bhavna Talwar’s forthcoming film Happi. He says, “A composer understands the deep meaning of a situation and expresses it with simplicity. The song has to touch the composer and only then will the composer make music that touches the hearts of people.”
