Ilayaraja Is The Omkara Of Music: Ravichandran

Crazy Star Ravichandran, who is awaiting the release of Kannada movie Drishya has hailed music maestro Ilayaraja as 'Omkara of Music'. Ilayaraja has composed the music for Ravichandran's upcoming movie Drishya, which is the remake of Malayalam hit Drishyam.

Speaking at the audio launch event of Drishya, Crazy Star said that Ilayaraja's music will be his all time favourite drive time songs, which is being loved by all the age group of audience. "I use to copy Ilayaraja's tunes earlier. How we write the word 'Om' at the beginning of a script, Ilayaraja sir is that Om word for the world of music," said Ravichandran, who is bowled over by Ilayaraja's music for his upcoming movie Drishya.

He also added, "I had first met Ilayaraja sir with my father producer N Veeraswamy. I was not even an actor at that time. I was totally impressed by his music, but faith took me to another music master Hamsalekha. Now I am happy because finally, I got an opportunity to work with Ilayaraja sir with Drishya. I like to give all the credits of Drishya to Ilayaraja sir and director P Vasu." Apart from Ravichandran Kannada movie Drishya also features Navya Nair, Achyuth Kumar, Srinivas Murthy and others in the key roles.
