From debuting with the global viral song ‘Why This Kolaveri Di’ to composing music for Rajinikanth’s ‘Petta’, Anirudh Ravichander has become one of the most popular musicians in the Tamil film industry.

He has won two Filmfare Awards South, nine SIIMA Awards and five Vijay Awards among other accolades.

The 31-year-old gained international success in 2012 with his debut song “Why This Kolaveri Di”, which went viral worldwide at a time Youtube was still on the rise as the biggest video-sharing platform. “Why This Kolaveri Di” was composed for film “3” starring Dhanush, who also gave vocals to the song. The then Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh had even invited Anirudh as the Guest of Honour after the song’s massive popularity.

Filmmaker A.R Murugadoss signed Anirudh for superstar Vijay’s Kaththi in 2014, and the young composer did not disappoint as the track “Selfie Pulla” went massively viral. Kaththi soundtrack is one of the highlights of Anirudh’s career.
