With more than a quarter of a century in the Tamil movie soundtrack game, Harris Jayaraj is one of the most influential OST composers in India. His incredible impact on sound production and romantic melodies cannot be understated—in fact, he helped define Tamil film music in the 2000s. He walks a fine balance between old-school charm and modern pop instrumentation, and that’s best heard on his many love tunes. Whether on songs of yearning or unity, Jayaraj enlists vocalists such as Bombay Jayashri, Hariharan, Tippu and Karthik for multiple memorable romantic tracks.
