The reticent young man who became an overnight sensation has chosen to keep a low profile. But his music is definitely taking him places.


In Kollywood, Anirudh’s next project is a biggie – it looks like he has landed a Gautham Menon project! Sources say that the 21-year-old has been offered a flick by the director which will take off after he completes ‘Yohan’ with Vijay. Currently, Anirudh is working on a Dhanush-production that’s being directed by Vetrimaaran’s assistant, Senthil.

The latest news from Bollywood is that he has been signed on by Anurag Kashyap for his new film and by Bejoy Nambiar for his trilingual, ‘David’.

Ask Anirudh about these developments and he says, “Yes, it’s true, I am in talks with them for these projects.” While he refuses to divulge more, it is learnt that he’ll be one of the composers for ‘David’ starring Vikram.

According to a source, “Nambiar has a tendency to have two or three music directors’ work on a film. So Anirudh will be composing a couple of songs for this flick. Contrary to rumours, he has not started work on it!”

With regard to Anurag’s film, it’s likely to take off only by the end of the year.
