Yuvan, MSV & Tha Prophecy shoot for Thillu Mullu 2

Toronto based rapper Rajeev aka "Tha Prophecy" is in Chennai today for the shoot of the upcoming Tamil comedy Thillu Mullu 2 for which Yuvan Shankar Raja has produced the songs. The album features 5 tracks and 2 remixes, one of which features Tha Prophecy.

It was but a few months ago that "Tha Prophecy" was propelled to the Kollywood music scene after the release of Adhi Bhagavan in which he rapped the theme song. Today he got on his social media…

To be where I am and to work with a bunch music directors was never my intention. To have this friendship for the rest of my life, already makes me the richest and most successful man on earth. No one quite like him. My brother and inspiration @itsyuvan #thillumullu #musicvideoshoot #legendaryproject #u1 #MSV #thaprophecy #dreambelieveachieve

The green screen shoot features a cameo by both Yuvan Shankar Raja and legendary music producer M.S. Viswanathan known more popularly as M.S.V. We also see Rajeev feature in the video alongside some Urban & traditional Bharatanatyam dancers. Its great to see film directors giving the music producers and artists screen time, which is not seen often in Indian cinema.

Rajeev balances his time between Kollywood music and independent music. We caught up with Rajeev a few months ago for a video interview in Toronto where he gives us the low down of the Tamil music industry and his journey. Read more

Thillu Mullu 2 stars Prakash Raj and is a remake of the Rajinikanth starrer by the same name, which itself was a remake of the Hindi Film Gol Maal.
