Anand is a 1987 Indian Tamil-language romantic drama film, directed by C. V. Rajendran and produced by Sivaji Productions. The film stars Prabhu, Radha and Jayashree. A remake of the 1987 Telugu film Majnu, [1] [2] it was released on 20 November 1987. [3]
Soundtrack was composed by Ilaiyaraaja. Lyrics were by Gangai Amaran. [4] [5] Anand was the first Tamil film since the 1950s where Lata Mangeshkar sang; she performed without taking remuneration out of respect for Prabhu's father Sivaji Ganesan. [6] The song "I Want To Tell You Something" is unique in Tamil cinema as the chorus is entirely in English. [7] The song "Aararo Aararo" is set in the raga Kalyani, [8] and "Ola Kudisaiyile" is set to Shivaranjani. [9]
Song | Singers |
---|---|
"Aararo Aararo" | Lata Mangeshkar |
"I Want To Tell You Something" | S. P. Balasubrahmanyam , S.P. Sailaja |
"Ola Kudisaiyile" | S. P. Balasubrahmanyam |
"Thodatha Thaalam" | S. P. Balasubrahmanyam, S. Janaki |
"Hey You Come" | S. P. Balasubrahmanyam |
"Poovukku Poovale" |
The Indian Express wrote, "As both lovers belong to the upper class, the décor of the interiors is modish. G.OR. Nathan's photography accentuates this effect: the soft and diffuse lighting gives the film a classy texture". [10] Jayamanmadhan of Kalki gave the film a mixed review panning, Prabhu's acting, humour and Ilaiyaraaja's background score but praised his songs and Radha's acting and concluded saying its neither too great nor its lip smacking.
