An interesting story behind I's 'Ennodu Nee Irundhal'

Music director A R Rahman is not just known for his scintillating tracks but also for a very unique voice that adds a special color to the songs he croons. There are plenty of songs that stand testimony to this fact. But in his recent films 'I' and Kaaviya Thalaivan, the Oscar winner has not sung a single track.

When director Vasantha Balan questioned him on this, although initially reluctant to explain, Rahman is supposed to have said that he could have sung the number 'Ennodu Nee Irundhal' in 'I' but chose Sid Sriram instead. He further justifies, “Sid Sriram is a better singer and he did not get his due in 'Adiyae' in Kadal. In case 'Ennodu' becomes a hit, then it would definitely pave way for success in his career and I don’t want to snatch away that glory from him”.

A R Rahman sure rocks not just in his music but for his humaneness too!
