Known for a number of controversies in his 45 years of film music career. Recently, he accused music director Govind Vasantha of 96 movie for using his songs in his film “96”. He called people who are using his songs without his permission as “Impotent” which created huge outrage. Now, Mysskin has revealed that Ilayaraja initially avoided Sid Sriram and he made him sing that song without Ilayaraja’s permission which turned out to be a massive blockbuster among the fans of the musician.
Watch the song here :
Mysskin who is an ardent fan of the musician since his childhood, worked in “Psycho” with Ilayaraja for the third time after working in “Nandalaala” and “Onayum Aatukuttiyum”. While talking about the composing of “Unna Nenachu” Mysskin said that he demanded multiple tunes from Ilayaraaja to get a best one. “When I wanted Sid Sriram to sing the song, he completely denied. I adamantly said that I want Sid Sriram to sing the song. We fought for 5 long days on this. He said that he won’t come for voice mixing if Sid Sriram sings the song. I requested him not to come at all. Then we made Sid Sriram sing the song without his presence.” said Mysskin who further added that Ilayaraja changed a BGM for him after that incident.

“That song would have been a massive hit irrespective of the singer. As a musician what Ilayaraja appa thought would have been right. My assistant’s introduced Sid Sriram to me by playing one of his disgusting folk song. However I liked the uniqueness in his voice. When I recommended him, he (Ilayaraja) completely denied. He can deny, that’s totally understandable. End of the day it is just a difference of opinion in a creative matter” the filmmaker said. After that incident, they continued to work on the BGM of the movie, he added.

It is notable that Sid Sriram received several awards for singing this song.
Ilayaraaja debuted through 1976 film “Annakili” and went on to achieve several awards and accolades across the world.
