Harris Jayaraj plans to break his jinx in Tollywood?

After failing to impress with his musical score in ‘Extra Ordinary Man’, noted Tamil composer Harris Jayaraj is doing another Telugu film with young actor Naga Shauya and will try his luck once again in Telugu films. “Harris should be hoping to dish out chartbusters and prove his mettle in Telugu too,” says a director and adds, “He is a talented musician but he is unable to strike a chord with Telugu music listeners, and for that, he needs to deliver this time,” he adds.

No doubt, the ace composer belted out his mellifluous numbers in Telugu films like ‘Orange’ and ‘Vasu’ and they are still lingering in the minds of music lovers,” he points out and adds, “He couldn’t put his heart and soul in his last film ‘Extra Ordinary Man’ since it didn’t have a heart-wrenching story for a composer to belt out catchy tunes. He should avoid such movies or it would dent his image.”

Harris Jayaraj has become quite popular among Telugu listeners with racy numbers like ‘Cheliya Cheliya’ from ‘Gharshana’ and later he rocked in the straight Telugu film ‘Orange’ starring Ram Charan and Genelia. “His soul-stirring numbers like ‘Nenu Nuvantu’ and ‘Hello Ramante’ busted musical charts for many years. His work in other Telugu films ‘Vasu’ also received appreciation for catchy numbers like ‘Pataku Pranam’ and ‘Sporty Boyz’ to gain the love of Telugu music lovers,” he adds.

With other big Tamil composers like A R Rahman and Anirudh arriving in Tollywood, Harris Jayaraj has to pull up his socks and deliver a sensational album or it would be losing his popularity." Harris has to prove his mettle this time," he concludes.
