Maestro Ilayaraja has returned from London after a hectic schedule of scoring music for Rudhramadevi in one of the London’s famous Angel Studios. Remember, this is the same studio where Hollywood blockbuster Titanic (1997) was composed.
Noted musicians from across Europe have teamed up with Ilayaraja to score music for Rudhramadevi. The most renowned London Philharmonic Orchestra has also teamed up with Ilayaraja. When Ilayaraja gave the notes to these internationally renowned musicians, they were awestruck and amazed at his musical knowledge. And they had tough time in understanding the musical notations that the maestro composed. This was revealed by Ilayaraja himself at an audio launch function of a Tamil film. Ilayaraja, in all his humility, has attributed to God his musical talent. He said in effect, that it is God’s gift and that it was like this from the beginning of his career. He also confessed that he does not know much music, which is why he has been coming back to the recording theaters… to learn and experiment further.
Rudhramadevi is being produced and directed by Gunashekhar. Anushka Shetty, Rana Daggubati, Allu Arjun are playing the lead role in the movie. Maestro Ilayaraja is scoring music for this historic magnum opus.
