Actor Sivakarthikeyan on music director Anirudh: This is the reason why our combo is a success!

Actor Sivakarthikeyan explains why his 8-film partnership with music director Anirudh creates blockbuster hits through mutual respect and admiration.

"I will say he is the reason for our success and he will say I am the reason for success - Sivakarthikeyan"

Chennai, Aug 25

Actor Sivakarthikeyan, who has delivered blockbuster hits every time he has joined hands with music director Anirudh for a film, has now revealed the secret to the success of their combination.

Speaking at the trailer launch event of his upcoming film Madharaasi, which has been directed by A R Murugadoss, Sivakarthikeyan pointed out that this was the eighth time that he was joining hands with music director Anirudh for a film.

"This is the eighth film that we are working on apart from a number of promos. I like Anirudh so much. When Ethir Neechal became a hit , I went and told him, 'You have scored music wonderfully and have made me reach all segments.' His sweet reply was, 'No sir, it is you who have made my songs reach the B and C audiences.'"

"Everybody asks what is the reason for your combination's success? This is the reason. I will say he is the reason for our success and he will say I am the reason for success. But he is wholly responsible for our combination's success. What do I know of songs or music?," Sivakarthikeyan said.

Stating that he shared a bond with Anirudh that was very special to him, Sivakarthikeyan said, "To explain how special he is to me, if I go and ask him to score music for a film now, he will readily agree to score music for any film I suggest. But I will never do that as we have immense respect for him and his stature. We will approach him only if we have a project that is suitable for him."

For the unaware, the film, which features Rukmini Vasanth as the heroine, has cinematography by Sudeep Elaman and editing by Sreekar Prasad. The film is scheduled to hit screens worldwide on September 5 this year.

Humility from both sides! That's rare in the film industry. Anirudh could have easily taken credit but he acknowledged SK's role in taking his music to masses. Respect!

Their combination is truly special. From Ethir Neechal to now, every album has been a banger. Anirudh understands SK's energy perfectly and creates music that complements his style.

As someone who follows Tamil cinema from abroad, I must say their collaboration produces some of the most catchy tunes. Anirudh's music has universal appeal that transcends language barriers.

While I appreciate their mutual respect, I hope SK works with other music directors too. Variety is always good. But can't deny that Anirudh-SK combo is pure fire!
