This movie is a classic example of great music but the film bombing at the box office. The song Kolaveri di was an international sensation and has gained more than one hundred thousand views on YouTube. This was music composer Anirudh’s debut movie. There was a huge hype before the movie’s release. The film was not appreciated by many and also did not ring bells at the box office.

If you do not know which movie this is, remember the song Taxi Taxi?  Yes, the song is from this movie. Starring Bhagyaraj’s son Shathnoo as debutante, this movie had music by the A.R. Rahman. All songs from the movie were great, but the film was a huge disappointment.

All songs were a major hit before the film’s release, especially the melodies, Ragasiya Kanavugal and Ennadhuyire. The film which had Vikram and Trisha play lead roles, failed at the box office. The Harris Jayaraj musical was released after much hype but was not received well by the audience.
