Kamal Haasan sings a rock song for Avam

Despite being busy with his film Papanasam, actor Kamal Haasan found time to croon a rock song for a film titled Avam, being directed by debutant Vijay Vilvakrish, an associate of cinematographer-director Rajeev Menon. Confirming the news, a source close to the development says, “Kamal has sung a song in the rock genre for the upcoming film Avam. The music is by debutant Sundaramoorthy K S and the lyrics have been penned by Madhan Karky. The song is a peppy number and something every youngster can relate to. The lyrics too reflect this sentiment. A lot of novel Tamil words and ideas have been used in this song.” Talking about why Kamal was specifically chosen to sing this song, the source adds, “A rock song in Kamal Haasan’s voice will elevate it to another level. This song required the singer to emote and express the pain, the helplessness, the guilt and frustration of the character and Kamal’s voice did the magic.”
