The audio launch of Valmiki took
place at the Sathyam Theatre Complex.
While the audio was released by
directors Lingusamy and Shankar,
it was received by the entire Valmiki
team.
What’s novel about the launch
was that seven lyricists Yugabharathi,
Viveka, Thamarai, Pa. Vijay, Na.
Muthukumar and Tabu Shankar gave
their comments about the lyrics
penned by veteran lyricist Vaali
in the film with each one picking
out one of the songs.
Speaking at the function, director
Mysskin was all praises for maestro
Ilayaraja. He said that any director,
no matter how many films he or she
has directed, will not get complete
career satisfaction unless he works
with Ilayaraja.
Reacting to this statement, Ilayaraja
said that he offered to work with
young directors only to give them
a chance to prove themselves. He
added that when he was youngster,
he got a chance from Panchu Arunachalam
and he had made the best use of
it. The expert music director stated
that he is not looking for any mediator
to get him chances at this stage
of his life and he never had one
before. Ilayaraja chastised Mysskin
by stating that he refused to attend
such events as he does not want
to get caught up in hypocrisy. Soon
after his hot and fiery speech,
the musician left the stage in a
hurry.
