Slated for a mid-2025 release, the upcoming project will dig a bit deeper insight into the life and legacy of the musical giant.
the untitled biographical drama will portray the extraordinary journey of Ilayaraja before he became a recognized musician. During his illustrious career spanning five decades, the actor made over 7,000 soul-stirring compositions featured in over 1,000 films. Besides, the prolific musician also enthralled audiences in over 20,000 concerts worldwide.
His contributions also earned him the highest civilian honours in India including the Padma Bhushan in 2010 and Padma Vibhushan in 2018. There is a chance that Bharati Raja will play his role in the movie as the friend of Raja.
