Yuvan Shankar Raja, one of the leading musicians in Tamil cinema, has composed the music for Thalapathy Vijay's upcoming film 'GOAT,' directed by Venkat Prabhu. The second single from the movie, featuring the voices of Thalapathy Vijay and Yuvan's sister Bhavatharini, was unveiled today.
We all know that Bhavatharini passed away in January due to cancer. In a heartfelt gesture, Yuvan Shankar Raja and Venkat Prabhu used AI to generate her voice for the song 'Chinna Chinna Kangal'. Today, Yuvan shared the song with fans, accompanied by an emotional note about using his late sister's AI-generated voice. This touching tribute is now going viral.
Yuvan wrote, The second single from #TheGreatestOfAllTime is very special for me. Words cannot do justice to describe this feeling. When we were composing this song in Bangalore, @vp_offl & I felt this song is for my sister and at that time I thought to myself once sheâs better and out of the hospital we can record her voice. But, an hour later I got the news that sheâs no more. I never imagined I would be using her voice like this. I would like to sincerely thank my music team & all the people involved in the process of making this happen. It is a very bittersweet moment for me (sic).
