The 'Mankatha' audio album, which will be launched soon, will mark the debut of a singer, and she is none other than Anusha, wife of producer Dayanidhi Alagiri. She has crooned for an interesting number in the film.

Anusha has rendered the song, composed by Yuvan Shankar Raja, in the company of Karthik and Vijay Yesudas. "It has come out good and will be one of the highlights of the album," say sources in the know.

Says the director, Venkat Prabhu, "When we did a concert at the wedding reception of Dayanidhi, we made Anusha to sing. It was there we realized that she has a gifted voice and could make it as a big singer."

"So we decided to make her sing for Mankatha. She was initially apprehensive and but finally accepted our request. She came out with a stunning performance," he adds. 'Mankatha', the 50th film of Ajith, will see an August release.
