Top 5 Songs of Anirudh Ravichander

Why This Kolaveri Di

Why This Kolaveri Di is a song from the Tamil psychological thriller movie 3 that came out in 2012 and starred Dhanush and Shruthi Hassan. The song was written by Dhanush and sung by him. Anirudh Ravichander made the music for it. The song came out on November 16, 2011, and its funny Tanglish lyrics made it a hit on social networking sites right away. Soon, the song's YouTube video became the most-searched video in India and a big deal on the internet all over Asia. Within a few weeks, YouTube gave the video a gold medal for Recently Most Popular and a silver medal for Trending because it got a lot of views in a short amount of time. The singer of the original song, Dhanush, was asked to be a Guest of Honour by then-Prime Minister Manmohan Singh after the song became a huge hit and was played all over the country.

Anirudh Ravichander says that the film's director, Aishwarya R. Dhanush, wanted a funny song about love that didn't work out. The tune was quickly written by Ravichander in about 10 minutes. Then Dhanush started working on the lyrics, which he finished after about 20 minutes of thinking about what to say. The first line he sang was Why This Kolaveri?, which translates to Why do you hate me so much, girl? But the question is not meant to be taken seriously.

Naa Ready

Anirudh Ravichander composed the song Naa Ready for the Tamil movie Leo with Thalapathy Vijay. The song came out on June 22, 2023, as part of the party for Vijay's birthday. The track has vocals from Anirudh Ravichander, Vijay himself, and Asal Kolaar. Naa Ready is a lively and upbeat Tamil Kuthu song with a catchy tune and rhythmic beats. The song has gotten good reviews, and people are likely to like it.

Kaavaalaa

The first single from Jailer, called Kaavaalaa, came out in the month of July 2023. Since the song came out, it's been everywhere. So, it joined other big hits like Arabic Kuthu, Ranjithame, Rowdy Baby, and Chellamma. Everyone wants to copy Kaavaalaa's hook step in reels and dance to it. Right now, you can't go on any social media platform without hearing the song. 

People aren't just hooked on Kaavaalaa because of the music or voice of Anirudh Ravichander or Shilpa Rao. The song's catchy hook steps are another reason why it has become so popular. In some of the reels, the people take it very seriously and dance passionately to the music, while in others, they just have fun with it. f If Tamannaah's mesmerizing dance moves weren't enough, Rajinikanth shows up at the end of the song and dances with the Ayan actress. Even at 72 years old, no one is as charismatic as the Enthiran actor. 

Arabic Kuthu

Arabic Kuthu starts with Anirudh's singing, then moves into an instrumental break that sounds like it came straight from Arabic pop. This has a similar mood and rhythm to Mettalaa Hajbo by Moroccan artist Karima Gouit, which has a catchy loop over a shifting rhythm. So, from how it starts, Arabic Kuthu sounds like a cool mix of Arabic and kuthu styles that Anirudh used to fit his own taste. 

But after the short introduction, lyricist Sivakarthikeyan and music director Anirudh got rid of the Arabic theme and made a good dance number for Vijay. The song isn't as Arabic as Vidyasagar's Hey Shabba from Karna, for example. Even though he sometimes uses gibberish Arabic phrases like Halamathi Habibo, malama pitha pithadhe, and balhabeedha balhabi, Sivakarthikeyan soon goes back to his usual style of short, rhymed lyrics that are perfect for a kuthu song, like holi holi pakkathula sirikkum rangoli. Anirudh's song has only a basic Arabic flavour, and after a minute, it starts to sound more and more like a slower version of Paalam from Vijay's Kaththi. Like Anirudh and Sivakarthiyan's other songs together, Arabic Kuthu is a simple song that gets stuck in your head. The visuals and choreography are likely to make it even better, especially if the glimpses of Vijay and Pooja Hegde in the lyric video are any indication. It reminds me of 'Selfie Pulla' by Beast.

Vaathi Coming

The song Vaathi Coming is kind of a party anthem. It has a lot of percussion instruments and is called Vaathi Coming. Anirudh Ravichander wrote this Kuthu song, which is a type of Tamil folk music. The behind-the-scenes footage shows that Vijay and his dancers will put on high-energy shows. The video also shows a performance by Anirudh, who lets his hair down to the beats.

Fans really like the song Vaathi Coming from the movie, especially since Vijay danced to it at the audio launch of Master. Now, the word on the street is that Thalapathy Vijay's movie Vaathi Coming is even gaining fans in the UK. Master also stars Vijay Sethupathi, Malavika Mohanan, Andrea Jeremiah, Arjun Das, Shanthanu Bhagyaraj, and others besides Vijay. The movie is being paid for by XB Film Creators and Seven Screen Studio.
