A R Rahman is India’s pride. He has won two Oscars and now, two Grammy Awards, and in fact, almost won yet another Oscar! The man is on a roll in the global scene. And while he was busy rocking the world, back home Yuvan Shankar Raja stole his thunder!Yuvan has been coming out with movie album after movie album that stunned us and filled our CD rack! He has a knack for creating numbers that appeal to all classes of audience and that is his biggest asset.
Turn on the radio and on at least two of the many available stations, at any given point of time , you will find yourself humming with a song by Yuvan! His rhythms and tunes are a cut above the rest of the musicians, vying to scale ARR’s heights. But his peace has been shattered with the re-entry of ARR’s music!
The two albums that are fighting it out right now are A.R. Rahman’s Vinnaithaandi Varuvaaya and Yuvan’s Paiyaa. While the former has a very international feel to it in terms of melody and instrumentation, Paiyaa caters to the average Tamil moviegoer. 'Hosanna' may transport you to another dimension but 'Yen Kadhal Solla' stabs love right into your heart! It’s a case of classic A.R. Rahman vs. classic Yuvan! And now that’s a tough contest! Who’s your choice?
