Perarasu has written a special song to celebrate actor Kamal Haasan’s birthday on November 7. The director collaborated with music director Thor Nishanlee and director Sabari SE for the project.
In conversation with Silverscreen, Perarasu said, “Thor Nishanlee approached me sometime back to write a passionate song for Kamal sir. It took us a long time to get the song right. As Kamal sir is such a perfectionist, I wanted to make a song for him [that is] just as perfect.”
The song, titled ‘Unakkul Oruvan‘, will be launched on November 7. “Unakkul Oruvan, Enakkul Oruvan, Kalaiyin Thalaivan Yaar..is how the song begins. We planned to incorporate some of his famous film titles in the song. Since there are so many to choose from, there was much healthy debate while writing the track.”

Perarasu believes that the song will fetch him acclaim. “This song will be loved not only by Kamal sir’s fans but by everybody. It is sure to become viral.” While the director has written songs for films before, this is the first time he has collaborated with independent musicians. “I found a sense of freedom in this process. But other than that, it was all the same,” Perarasu said.
The director is currently working on a new film, and plans to make the announcement soon.
