Illaiyaraaja- Thalapathy to sing for GOAT - Vadivelu- Faahad film a road journey

Almost after a decade, Thalapathy Vijay and Ilaiyaraaja are coming together for the ongoing film directed by Venkat Prabhu and titled G O A T. The duo will croon a song together under the baton of Yuvan Shankar Raja. The icing to the cake is that lyrics are by Gangai Amaraan. Records show that 23 years back Raaja had scored music for Friends that had Vijay in the lead and directed by Siddique. Before that Raaja’s scored for Kathaluku Mariyadai which was Vijay’s biggest blockbuster of that time. This film was a Malayalam remake of Fazil’s Aniyathi Pravu. Venkat Prabhu who is considered a part of Raaja family has managed this coup. Yuvan scored for Vijay film Puthiya Geethai in 2003 and it was the only film in Yuvan’s 25 year career that he scored for a Vijay film. As a singer he crooned for Vijay’s Master under Anirudh music and before that he sang for Friends the hit song Ruku Ruku under his father baton for Vijay. Illaiyaraaja who attended the Artist Maniam’s exhibition told reporters that the film PS did not give the same feel that he got from reading Kalki’s literary prose and Manian’s drawings . He said that he appreciated the publishers of PS for keeping the copyright over the work for 46 years. He said that he has been struggling to keep the copyright from his first film Annakili onwards. Coming back to GOAT , Sneha who finished a schedule with Vijay and that too as his pair revealed that after Vassegaran released in 2003 , she received an offer several decades later to play sister in law of Vijay in Varisu. She declined it. She felt that that decision prompted Venkat to cast her as Vijay’s pair in GOAT. After meeting Vijay on the sets, she asked how he retained his youth and he said that he too had the same question to her. Role that Sneha rejected was done by Sangeetha Krish in Varisu.
