Filmmaker Susi Ganesan has announced that he has roped in noted music composer Ilayaraja to score music for his next film titled Venjam Theerthaayadaa. He has shared a picture with the music maestro on Twitter to inform everyone about the development. The announcement, however, did not go down well with the Twitter users, who criticised Ilayaraja for collaborating with #Metoo accused Susi Ganesan.
Twitter users expressed their anger and disappointment over the collaboration of legendary composer with “sexual harassment accused”.
Ganeshan on Friday shared the picture of himself with Ilayaraja, saying that he is “Happy to join the Maestro.”
