Talking about having AR Rahman on board, Obeli N Krishna said, “When we decided to do a film together, Raja and I had the same thought – it would be nice if Rahman did the music. And the film has a lot of scope for music. Sillunu Oru Kadhal was a romantic film and there was scope to explore romance through songs. And with Pathu Thala, there is scope to experiment with sounds. So, we decided to ask Rahman. I was hesitant because he was extremely busy with his other projects. But he instantly agreed to be a part of the film.” Maanaadu First Look: Silambarasan’s Avatar As Abdul Khaaliq Make Simbu Fans Say ‘Super Thalaiva’.
