About Yuvan Shankar Raja
Yuvan Shankar Raja (born 31 August 1979) is an Indian film score and soundtrack composer and singer-songwriter. He predominantly scores music for Tamil films. Being the youngest son of the legendary composer Ilaiyaraaja, he began his musical career in 1996, at the age of 15, when he composed the film score for Aravindhan. After an initial struggle, he made his big break with the Thulluvadho Ilamai soundtrack (2001), and evolved as one of Tamil cinema's most sought-after composers by the mid-2000s. He is the only Indian composer to win the Cyprus International Film Festival Award in 2006 for the soundtrack of Raam. Yuvan's talent has been compared with that of Oscar-winner A.R.Rahman. His notable works and loyal fanbase earned him the honorific nickname Youth Icon.Within a span of 15 years, Yuvan Shankar Raja has worked on over 100 films. Considered as a versatile composer, he is particularly known for his use of western music elements and often credited with having introduced Hip hop to the Tamil film and music industry and started the "era of remixes" in Tamil Nadu.He has won two Filmfare Awards; the Best Music Director Award in 2004 for his score in the drama 7G Rainbow Colony and Filmfare Special Award - South in 2009 for his Telugu musical Oy!. Also, he received six nominations for Filmfare Awards, two Tamil Nadu State Film Awards in 2006 and 2010.
