Music maestro Ilayaraja has scored the music for more than 1,000 films and 5,000 songs. He has also rendered 500 numbers and won the national award five times. To honour his achievements, Tamil Film Producers Council is felicitating ‘Isai Gnani’ with a two-day function at a gala event titled Ilayaraja 75. Top actors and technicians from all south Indian languages including Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and Malayalam, besides Hindi who have worked with the maestro are expected to attend the event and share their experiences with the music maestro.

As the function held today, a low quality phone video which was made by a fan was going viral on Internet. The video is all about the two musical icons in world music Ilayaraja and A.R Rahman. In the video it is seen A.R Rahman playing piano of a song from Punnagai Mannan.
