Harris Jayaraj, a talented music director of several sensational songs

If Cricket is a religion, then Sachin Tendulkar is GOD. These placards are the main attractions when Sachin is playing for India. The contributions given by other senior players like Rahul Dravid, Saurav Ganguly and V.V.S Lekshman to Indian Cricket is very fascinating, but truly speaking their achievements may treat always as a shadow to Sachin's records. This is a fact in every fields of our life. Those who excel in their respective fields with luck and ability will be definitely treated as "The Master" of the section.The same thing is also applicable to Tamil Music. The presence of A.R.Rahman in Tamil films reduces the significance of another versatile musical genius like Harris Jayaraj

Most of the compositions of Harris have a resemblance with A.R.Rahman's style of music. But Harris always cleverly keeps his own style in his tunes. Clarity of Music (Sound Perfection) is a unique feature of all his songs. His songs like "Muthal Muthalayi(Leisa Leisa), Uyirin Uyire (Kakka Kakka) and Vaseegara(Minnale) are technically enriched songs with scintillating music scores. The song "Sutrum Vizhi" from the film "Gajni" rocks not only "Tamil Nadu", but also the entire South India

When A.R.Rahman was not available for the film "Anyan", the Mega Director Sankar chose Harris as the music director. That itself reveals the talent of this sensational music director. All the songs of Anyan are mega hits like the songs of previous films of Sankar.

The criticism of Harris pirating music (i.e., "June Ponal " song from Unnale Unnale has strong resemblance with an English song called 'All Rise' by the pop band 'Blue') from western songs is a disappointing factor to this talented musician. But, his melodious compositions like "Vaseegara" and Ayyenkaru (Annyan) attracts everybody with its excellent musical score and inspiring rhythm.

Harris entered into Tamil film Industry through the Film "Minnale in 2001.When Harris is composing music for Gautham, we always expect a mega hit song. Kakka Kakka, Gajni, and Vettayadu Vilayadu gave a brilliant break to this talented musician. He also composed songs for Hindi (Rehna Hai Tere Dil Mein -Remake of "Minnale") and Telugu films.

Harris Jayaraj is the winner of five Filmfare Awards and two tamil nadu state awards.
