Devanesan Chokkalingam, or Deva, is a legendary music composer who has contributed significantly to the Tamil film industry.
“Although I’m known for my Gaana songs, only through Malaysia has my melodic songs become a hit worldwide. For example, the movie Kadhal Kottai. In India, the song ‘Kavalai Padathey’ became a huge hit. But, in Malaysia, the melodious song ‘Nalam Nalamariya Aval’ had a bigger reach,” he said. The prolific composer quickly gained attention from those in the music and film industry after composing music for a string of Tamil films in a relatively short period of time.
His music is widely accredited for having elevated these films to new heights, helping establish Rajinikanth’s legendary status in the Tamil film industry. “Unfortunately, on that day, I completely lost my voice and my throat tightened up. I felt terrible but I really couldn’t sing,” he said.“The fan, who definitely had a few too many drinks, was carrying a petrol can on his shoulder and a matchbox on the other hand. He began to say very passionately that ‘thalaiva if you don’t perform for us now, I will light myself on fire’.”
