We already have popular Bollywood names like Vishal Dadlani, Sonu Nigam and Udit Narayan who have made a mark in Kollywood. Next in line seems to be Arjun Kanungo, who has sung some popular tracks like Khoon Choos Le from Go Goa Gone. Arjun will be making his singing debut in Kollywood with Sivakarthikeyan���s Remo.

���I have already recorded for a song in Chennai, and will be returning to the city for the shoot of the video. The song is very different as it is romantic, yet groovy. This will be a summer anthem,��� says Arjun, who found the language to be extremely difficult to understand.

���Tamil is tough. I rehearsed quite a lot and listened to the lyrics several times. I find Tamil difficult to even speak in, so, imagine singing in it. But Anirudh was patient and was with me throughout the recording. He translated the entire song for me, and also explained the meaning of each word, so I could get the feel of it,��� he says. Arjun boasts that his accent was quite accurate. ���My aim was to get the pronunciation right, which I think, I did. At the end of the recording, everyone started calling me Arjun Iyer. Anirudh was happy, too,��� he expresses.

A fan of Tamil music, Arjun says, ���I listen to a lot of Tamil songs. Bollywood has seen a lot of music composers from the south, and the best example is AR Rahman. The latest song that I liked was Anirudh���s Hola Amigo.���
