Kadhalan (soundtrack)

Kadhalan (transl. Loverboy; pronounced [kaːdalan]) is the soundtrack to the 1994 Tamil film of the same name, directed by Shankar. The soundtrack, features 9 songs composed by A. R. Rahman and lyrics penned by Vaali, Vairamuthu, Shankar and Thirikudarasappa Kavirayar. The Choreographers were Sundaram – Mugur Sundar and Raju Sundaram. The Hindi version, Humse Hai Muqabala, sold 2.5 million soundtrack album units in India. Shankar came to Vaali for one song, as there was a sentiment established that the movie will become hit if Vaali penned just one song for that movie (for e.g., Chikku bukku Rayilu for Shankar's previous directorial venture, Gentleman). Vaali generously accepted Shankar's request and penned Muqabla and Urvashi song which both became chartbusters.
