Ilayaraja became popular by issuing a notice to Balasubramanyam the legendary singer for using his songs during private orchestra programs. Raja who is the original composer of songs demanded royalty from late Balu for singing the songs without his permission in the private programs.
Balu the singer and friends of apologetic for the same and admitted his mistake. Recently Raja served notice for the film Jailer for using his tune without his permission.
Now he issued notice to Manjumel Boys films for using his songs from Guna. They gave the credits but he is not happy. Maybe he wants the money from the success of the movie.
Raja even after having tonnes of money demands the due from the people for using his tunes. He sends legal notices. At the same time, it is not ethical on the part of filmmakers to use his tunes.
They must pay him for the same. Some music directors call the same as inspiration. Now a film on Raja is being made where Dhanush is the hero of the movie.
Raja has grown from footpath to the International level. We do not know if he has done some charity or not. He should be doing but does not reveal it for any credit.
