Top music-directors of 2005
IndiaGlitz [Saturday, December 31, 2005]

Harris Jeyaraj

It was his year. Harris Jeyaraj has emerged the numero uno music-director. He has come up with hit numbers in Anniyan and Ghajini. While his tunes in Totti Jaya were also foot-tapping.

Yuvan Shankar Raja

Grown in stature. His tunes in movies including Arindhum Ariyamalum, Kanda Naal Mudhal, Sandai Kozhi till the recent Puthupet have been topping the audio charts. He is sure to give a stiff competition to Harris and Rehman.

Vidyasagar

The man who gave the hit songs in Rajinikanth's Chandramukhi. He has been having a good year so far with all his songs getting good reviews. More importantly his musical score for a Telugu movie fetched him the National award for last year. Songs in Majaa, Aathi and Ponniyin Selvan have been received well by music buffs.

A R Rehman

Though he had just a one big release Ah Aah, he still managed to leave his magic. The song Maramkothiyae had Rehman's touch all through. He had ended the year on a optimistic note getting the big offer to score music for Rajini's Sivaji.

Srikanth Deva

The son of music director Deva is making his presence felt in Kollywood. His Sivakasi and Bambharakannaley are hits. He is currently busy with over half-a-dozen offers in his kitty.

are u agree with this clasement?

For me :
1-harris eyaraj
2-ysr
3-arr
4-vidyasagar
5-devi sri prasad

The top music directors are rated based on the success of the movie I guess. HJ had Anniyan & Gajini which were super hits, Ullam ketkume - hit & Tottijaya -Avg., no wonder he is in the 1st place.The 5th place is open to all. No one to choose from. D.S.Prasad, Dina, S.Deva, Iman etc.. all the same.

Absolutely Bull!!

Srikanth Deva at # 5 is nonsense. It should be Yuvan at #1 and probably Ilayaraja (writing this with a heavy heart) at # 5 as he gave quality songs for movies that didn't run well.

Yuvan is indeed the number 1 as i don't consider Anniyan songs near Arindhum Ariyamalum.

july

neither music nor movie thotti jeya was a hit, but your point is correct thought. for HJ it was anniyan, gajini and ullam ketkumae (the best of 2005 was ullam ketkumae, though the audio was released in 2003)

says `thotti jaya' is profitable...that makes HJ the one with max # of movies that were hits...YSR / VS had two each...
