Harris Jayaraj made his debut as a music composer in Gautham Vasduevan’s debut film, Minnale although his first signed project was Prashanth’s Majunu.
Before his debut, he had worked as a musician or programmer for AR Rahman, Karthik Raja, Yuvanshankar Raja and Vidyasagar.
His songs in Minnale enjoyed tremendous popularity and won for him the Filmfare Award for Best Music Composer – an award that AR Rahman had won for the previous 9 consecutive years.
Harris Jayaraj is strongly influenced by western music and the result was a series of soundtracks that appealed to the youth. Ge did, however, prove his versatility with many soundtracks like Kovil and Samy. His last released soundtrack was for Jayam Ravi’s Brother..
