Dhanush Sings For G.V.Prakash In Vasanthabalan’s ‘Jail’

Dhanush has sung a song composed by G.V. Prakash Kumar in director Vasanthabalan’s upcoming movie Jail. The music director also plays the protagonist in the movie.

Dhanush who took to Twitter to make the announcement has said that the song was a melody.

Dhanush last sang for GV Prakash in Aadukalam and Mayakkam Enna, following which they allegedly had a fallout. This has been cited as the reason for the composer not working on Vetri Maaran’s Vada Chennai. Santhosh Narayanan composed the music for the movie.

G.V. Prakash’s response tweet has confirmed that the two had set aside their differences.

Dhanush who debuted as a singer under Yuvan Shankar Raja in Pudhukottaiyilirundhu Saravanan got his break when he sang ‘Why This Kolaveri’ from 3. Directed by Aishwarya Rajinikanth, the movie also marked the debut of music director Aniruddh Ravichander.

The song which went viral very soon became the most searched video in India. Dhanush’s latest songs are the ones he sings for his upcoming film Maari 2. He has also sung for Santhosh Narayanan in Vetri Maaran’s Vada Chennai.

Jail is director Vasanthabalan’s comeback film after 2014’s Kaaviya Thalaivan. Vasanthablan has made acclaimed films like Angaadi Theru and Veyil in the past. G.V. Prakash has been the composer on most of his films.

About G.V. Prakash, the director says in an interview “He was 17 when I met him. But he had immense clarity and enthusiasm. I thought I should travel with him. He’s a fighter, a Samurai. We all know what magic he created in that film. He was confident and focused on shaping his career. In 15 years, he’s composed for 75 films, branched into acting and created a space for himself there too. He’s in a good space now; his face allows him to even play a student. And, we don’t have too many people who fit that slot. Today, I’m directing him in Jail.”

“I wrote the film with three characters and I thought I would look at newcomers. But, I needed a saleable face. He came on board and seeing his work, I will wager that this will be an important film for him. Post-production is on, and I can’t wait to see how people react to it,” he added.

The first look poster of the film was released recently.

Meanwhile, G.V.Prakash awaits the release of his new movie Sarvam Thaala Mayam on December 21.
