All it took was one viral hit to change the fortunes of a young boy overnight. Before that, nobody even knew his name. We are talking about the music director Anirudh Ravichander and he shot to limelight with the Tamil number ‘Why This Kolaveri Di..’. Anirudh came to be known as the Kolaveri Guy eventually.
Now, the latest news from his end is that his fan base is exploding on the social media. Reports say the likes on his Facebook page has crossed one million and many youngsters are considering him as a youth icon. Most of Anirudh’s messages and tweets are tagged as favorites and shared exponentially.
At one point, there was a talk that ‘Kolaveri’ was just a one track sensation but Anirudh overcame that challenge and delivered few chartbusters in Kollywood. Soon, his tunes would be heard for the big ticket Tamil flick Katthi starring Vijay and Samantha. Let us hope that this young sensation steps into Tollywood someday.
