In Jagame Thandhiram, we have done 100 different things: Santhosh Narayanan

With just a week left for the release, Dhanush’s Jagame Thandhiram is getting in all the attention that it can. Now, composer Santhosh Narayanan has spoken out on the music composing process of the film, which he thoroughly enjoyed.

Santhosh Narayanan said, “I had a lot of time on my hands to work on the score of Jagame Thandhiram. We could do a number of revisits and I could draw inspiration from everywhere. I didn’t want the score to sound alien to us.I am glad that I got the opportunity to work with many talents across the world. The film is also British in many ways. I had a lot of opportunities to collaborate with British folk bands and musicians, especially the Scottish folk bands. I had the opportunity to explore Madurai’s folk music. I was there for the shoot of Jagame Thandiram. I could figure out what was working and what wasn’t working to make the changes to the music in the shooting spot itself. It was a different experience.It was amazing and gave me the space to express myself as an artist. Rakita was the first song I recorded live outside of the studio. The song is an expression.We wanted it to be a listener’s experience. Thanks to the entire cast and crew, especially Karthik Subbaraj. In Jagame Thandhiram we have done 100 different things, but we have stayed true to the roots of that particular scene or emotion.
