If one says that this has got to be the best debut ever made by a musician, then it would not be far from the truth. In his very first film, A.R. Rahman revolutionized Tamil cinema music, also making the entire Indian film industry take note of his arrival. The National Award is proof of the impact that the young Rahman made. Be it the joyful ‘Chinna Chinna aasai’, the soulful ‘Kadhal rojave’ or the touching ‘Thamizha Thamizha’, Rahman showed absolute class.
