The last time Vijay crooned a number was ‘Papa Papa’ from Bairavaa last year. While his last release was Mersal, which was composed by AR Rahman, the actor stuck to acting in the film.
Vijay, who started out as a child artiste in the industry, is now regarded as one of the most sought-after actors with a massive fan base in the state. Several of his films, that have a mix of action, comedy, and romance, have been remade in Telugu, Hindi, and Malayalam. He also has had a flourishing career as a playback singer, collaborating with several composers over the years including Deva, Ilaiyaraaja, Devi Sri Prasad, D Imman, Harris Jayaraj, GV Prakash, and Anirudh Ravichander.
Here’s a look at some of his popular numbers!
Vijay made his debut by singing “Bombay City Sukkha Rotti” (1994) in Rasigan. This was the first of many collaborations between him and composer Deva
