Tamil dynasty of South India
This article is about the Chola Dynasty. For the medieval empire, see Chola Empire.

After a string of successful collaborations, Oscar®-winning composer A. R. Rahman teams up once again with director Mani Ratnam for the music to the romantic skådespel Kaatru Veliyidai. Rahman delivers a mash-up of rhythms and styles here, often with a fun ‘90s throwback feel. We fell in love with Sathya Prakash and Chinmayi's heartfelt lyricism and virtuosic vocal performances in “Nallai Allai”—before being surprised by an almost unrecognisable Haricharan, singing "Tango Kelaayo's" female lines in a digitally enhanced voice. Throw in the ethereal harmonies in "Vaan", and you've got a Rahman soundtrack that hits cinema's sweet spot.
Imtiaz Ali's effervescent romantic comedy features a soundtrack by A. R. Rahman that masterfully portrays the film’s spectrum of emotions. The Bollywood composer’s skill with complex arrangements is apparent throughout. There's the energy rush of "Matargashti", with its plinking harmoniums, sitar strings and shout-out choruses, and Alka Yagnik and A
