"A Herd of Elephants Came to Listen to My Song": Ilayaraja

Renowned Indian film composer Ilayaraja, who has composed music for over 1,500 films and created more than 7,000 songs, recently made a statement that has gone viral on social media. In a recent interview, he expressed pride not only in his music but also in his talent.

Ilayaraja stated that he considers arrogance a natural trait of talented individuals, adding that he himself possesses such confidence. He recounted an incident where a young child regained breath after listening to his music. Additionally, he claimed that a herd of elephants once gathered to listen to one of his songs.

The composer emphasized that listening to music is an art in itself. He also highlighted his contribution to introducing Western classical music through his compositions.

While his comments have sparked some criticism, his fans defend him, asserting that his achievements justify such statements.
