Pavithra

A woman-centric film, Pavithra had Raadhika in the lead role and Nasser and Ajit in supporting roles. Though it won two national awards, the film failed to appeal to the audience. For AR Rahman, Pavithra happened between two of his biggest hits Kaadhalan and Karuthamma. The album had melodies written by Vairamuthu and Pazhani Bharathi and sung by Mano, Unnikrishnan, Chithra, Swarnalatha, Shahul Hameed, and SP Balasubramaniam’s daughter Pallavi. Sevvanam Chinna Pen sung by Mano and Pallavi is the most hummable track while Chithra’s Azhagu Nilave is the track that you would love to listen to again.

Puthiya Mannargal

This is one of the earliest movies of Vikram as a hero. Director Vikraman was already a household name after the runaway success of the musical Pudhu Vasantham when he directed Puthiya Mannargal. The album has foot-tapping numbers Nee Kattum Selai, Vaanil Yeni Pottu, Eduda Andha Sooriyan and a Vaadi Saathukudi.

Uzhavan

This album was one of the first ones to come out after Roja and Gentleman. Kizhakku Seemayile, which was released around the same time was a huge hit. Uzhavan is an impressive album with six beautiful tracks, starting with the most popular melody Pennella Pennalla Oodhapoo. The duet Rakozhi Randu was sensuously rendered by Yesudas and Swarnalatha. Kangalil Enna Eeramo is a pleasant melody penned by Vaali and sung by SPB and Chithra with refreshing sounds. Kathu Kathu Dinam Kaathu is a fast, playful number by Chithra and GV Prakash Kumar in a child’s voice while Maari Mazhai is another fast number by AR Rahman’s favorite voice Shahul Hameed who died in 1998. Yesudas and Chithra had sung the sad poem about motherly love En Aatha.

Paarthaale Paravasam

K Balachandar’s 100th film, Paarthaale Paravasam failed to make a mark at the box office. The soundtrack had 9 songs. In the track, Manmadha Maasam Rahman has used minimum words. The film’s lyricist Vaali, after hearing the notes, had opined that it does not require many lines as they would pollute the music. The title track Paarthaale Paravasam and Ada Moonrezhuthu are hummable.

Kaadhal Virus

The love album of Kathir’s Kaadhal Virus (part of his trilogy with the word Kaadhal in the movie title, the other two being Kaadhalar Dinam and Kaadhal Desam, which became superhits) was released amidst much hype. Ye Ye Ennachu Unakku penned by Pa.Vijay and sung by Vasundhara Das was the pick of the album while Bailamore by Tippu and Silambarasan and Vaan Nila by Srinivas and Karthik are the other fast numbers. Sonnalum by Unnikrishnan and Harini and Enthan Vaanil by SPB and Swarnalatha is romantic melodies. The songs carry a Rahman signature while using minimal instruments.

Love Birds

The song Malargale Malargale is the signature track of this love album. No Problem by reggae singer Apache Indian and AR Rahman was one of its kind in Rahman’s discography that you wouldn’t want to miss. Naalai Ulagam, a soothing track, has beautiful lines penned by Vairamuthu. Samba Samba is a song tailor-made for Prabhu Deva’s choreography.

Taj Mahal

Taj Mahal was the launch vehicle of director Bharathiraja’s son Manoj. He was paired with Riya Sen in this story of village rivalry. AR Rahman composed a mega album with 10 tracks for this project, out of which many songs became super hits. He has used many of his usual voices along with introducing some fresh voices. Rahman has provided a good mix combining the fast numbers Thiruppachi Aruvala, Eechi Elumichi, and Chotta Chotta with the romantic duet Kulirudhu Kulirudhu.

Sakkarakkatti

Many of us may not remember the name of this movie, but that’s not the case with the song Taxi Taxi. It is a dance number that is one of the most sought-after numbers of hip hop dancers. Many of the other tracks, such as Chinnamma, Naan Eppodhu, and Marudani were reused tracks from Rahman’s Hindi films. Elay is the only other original track.

Anbae Aaruyire

SJ Surya was the busiest director at one point releasing back-to-back films with him behind and in front of the camera. AR Rahman was his favorite composer. The movie with the shortened title of Aa Aaa ran into controversies even before it was launched. Mailegre Mailegre tops the tracks in this album

Kangalal Kaidhu Sei

One song is enough to add this album to your playlist. Anarkali though it is one album that you cannot fast forward. Sung by Karthik, Chitra Sivaraman, Kadhir, and Murtuza, the song is one of the best melodies of the time. The fast number Theekuruvi blends classical ragas and western beats still sound fresh. The other beautifully composed tracks in the album are Azhagiya Cindrella, Aaha Tamizhamma, and Ennuyir Thozhiye.
