Ilayaraja is a respected music composer

Ilayaraja created new milestones in Tamil music. ‘Kalaignar’ Karunanidhi called him a musical geneous. There are no Tamils ​​who don't like Ilayaraja's music.

Ilayaraja is celebrated by Tamils ​​for the music he gave as God. Although he is also a devotee of God, Tamilians are devotees of his music.

A few months ago, director Mishkin had revealed some inconsistencies about working with Ilayaraja. However, there is no disrespect for him and his music.

Recently, Ilayaraja's comments on Prime Minister Narendra Modi, comparing him to Ambedkar, have been heavily debated. He was subsequently given the appointment of Rajya sabha M.P. There were sharp criticisms about the position.

Directors like Ajay Gnanamuthu, who approach Tamil cinema in a different way, have expressed their reluctance to work with Ilayaraja in some interviews.

Pa. Ranjith accurately records the caste face of Tamil society. Directors like Pa. Ranjith have also been mediating their views on Ilayaraja in recent times. Their opinion is that even though there are criticisms on Ilayaraja, the value of him cannot be reduced.

Regardless of Ilayaraja's personal qualities, whatever his political views, whatever his views on his spiritual experiences, his contribution and value to Tamil music will always keep him as a highly valued composer.
