Says Sathya, ���I worked with Ramaiah sir in Nedunchalai. Once, he casually sang a song during a jamming session, too. And he was absolutely good. In this album, there is a song that required a raw voice. I remembered Ramaiah sir's flawless rendition and made him record this one. This is the first time I am making an actor sing, and I must say that he has sung really well.��� Ramaiah, himself a ���huge fan of the MSV-KannadasanTM Soundarajan combo,��� says that he enjoyed this singing stint.

���Their songs touch the listeners' hearts and I've always enjoyed singing their songs. But I could never learn singing professionally. Sathya heard my voice when we were recording for Nedunchalai and asked me to record this one. This song is inspired by MSV's Veedu Varai Uravu -Yugabharathi took the essence from the classic and wrote a song that would suit today's times. This number is mean ingful and I enjoyed recording it.���
