Shankar and produced by AVM Productions. A. R. Rahman was paid a salary of 30 million (Indian rupees), making him the highest paid Indian music composer then.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=(Rediff.com ) )〕 ==Development== As ''Sivaji'' became a major anticipated project, several false rumours about the soundtrack of the film were disseminated to websites and magazines. Despite the fact that early on during the project, Vairamuthu confirmed he had written a song called "Vaa..ji Vaa..ji Sivaji", no other major details about any other song was mentioned. Rumours went around that certain singers had sung in the project, including Rajinikanth. However, on 11 October 2006, the source, Behindwoods.com, mentioned that they had received credible information that ''Sivaji'' contained seven songs, five of which were set to be in the audio, with the other two being situational songs. Surprisingly, they also mentioned the five songs which were in the album. "Vaa...ji Vaa...ji Sivaji"〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=(Behindwoods.com ) )〕 was mentioned to be the opening song of the film. They also reported that a philosophical song titled "Unpeyar Ennada"〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=(Behindwoods.com ) )〕 was in the film, as per usual Rajinikanth films since ''Baba''. Another song titled "Jee Boom Ba"〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=(Behindwoods.com ) )〕 was mentioned as its picturization was to be filmed in either foreign locations or in Karnataka featuring the lead pair. A song called "Talla Dimi Takka Dimi Pucha"〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=(Behindwoods.com ) )〕 was apparently supposed to contain Japanese lyrics and was set to be filmed in Japan, however the ''Sivaji'' crew did not travel to Japan for any purposes during the shoot. The final song mentioned was "Adaal Udan Pesadha Di... En Salangaiku Bhadil Solladi"〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=(Behindwoods.com ) )〕 and it was mentioned as a remix from another film titled ''Vanjikottai Valiban''. Behindwoods.com claimed that this song was set to come in the climax. However none of these possible songs, barring "Vaaji Vaaji", were in the final album.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=(Smashhits.com ) )〕 Before the official audio release on 2 April, on 22 March 2007 a dilemma arose over the illegal release of three preliminary tracks onto the internet.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=(Oneindia.com ) )〕 Songs titled, ''Vaa..ji Vaa..ji En Jeevan Nee Sivaji'', sung by Hariharan and Madhushree〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=(Oneindia.com ) )〕 ''Sahana Saaral Thoovudho'' sung by Udit Narayan and Sujatha〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=(Oneindia.com ) )〕 and finally a song titled, ''Oru Koodai Sunlight'' rendered by Tanvi, Shaggy and Blaaze became available on the internet.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=(Oneindia.com ) )〕 However, despite the uproar these songs caused, they were dismissed as scratchings for the picturization. Later the tracks were offiically released with Chinmayi instead of Sujatha, in ''Sahana'' and Suresh Peters added to the group of singers in ''Style'' ''(Oru Koodai Sunlight)''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=(Oneindia.com ) )〕 The official audio of ''Sivaji'' released in India and overseas on 2 April 2007.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=(Indiaglitz.com ) )〕 Unlike other major films, no pooja was held for the event and the album hit the stands straight away. The original audio cassette cover had an image of four Rajinikanths on its cover, while the CD version had an image of the lead pair on its cover.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=(Indiaglitz.com ) )〕 The first song in the album is "Balleilakka," which features Rajinikanth dancing with Nayanthara, who makes a guest appearance in the film. It picturizes him dancing and singing while returning to Tamil Nadu from the United States of America, with a backdrop of paddy fields. Over four hundred dancing extras were used in the song, including Pulikali artistes from Kerala. The song's lyrics were penned by Na. Muthukumar and the song was sung by S. P. Balasubrahmanyam, who, as he did in ''Amarkalam'', sang without stopping for nearly two minutes. The other singers are Rahman's elder sister Reihana and Telugu language singer Benny.〔 The second song in the album is entitled "Style" and is sung by Ravi "Rags" Khote, Tanvi, Blaaze and Suresh Peters. The song was previously titled "Oru Koodai Sunlight" and was picturized in Bilbao, Spain. The song praises Rajinikanth's style and hero qualities.〔 The lyrics were penned by Pa. Vijay. The third song is "Vaaji Vaaji" and was picturized at Hyderabad's Ramoji Film City, with sets at a cost of three Indian Crores. Reports claim the song picturizes Rajinikanth in knee-length warrior clothing as the King of Egypt and Shriya Saran as Queen. The song, penned by Vairamuthu, has singers Hariharan and Madhushree singing.〔 The fourth song in the album is "Athiradee" and is sung by A. R. Rahman and Sayonara, with lyrics written by Vaali.〔 The fifth and sixth songs of the album are titled "Sahana" and "Sahara" — one being an upbeat rendition and the other being a soulful rendition of the same number. Singing the upbeat rendition is Hindi language singer, Udit Narayan with Chinmayi while the soulful rendition singers are Vijay Yesudas and Gomathishree. Both songs have lyrics written by Vairamuthu, who was praised by Rajinikanth personally for his effort.〔 The final song in the album is a situational theme song entitled "The Boss", sung by Naresh Iyer, Blaaze and Raqueeb Alam, with lyrics from Na. Muthukumar and Blaaze.〔 Rahman worked with the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra and choral singers in Prague for the score. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sivaji (soundtrack)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
