If Gowtham Menon's Kaakha Kaakha made Suriya a star, R Murugadoss' Ghajini made him a super star.
The film was such a huge success that Aamir Khan remade it in Hindi. The Hindi version too was a huge success, though for those who have seen both the versions, it was felt that Suriya was better in the lead role.
Similarly, A R Rahman's songs for the Hindi version of Ghajini were superb but Harris Jayaraj's songs for the original were better and still remembered years after the film was made. Even the picturisation of some of the songs were more romantic.
So when the deadly combination of Suriya, Murugadoss and Harris Jayaraj decided to join hands again after five long years for 7aam Arivu (seventh sense), there was a lot of excitement in the Tamil film industry. It further escalated when ace cinematographer Ravi K Chandran decided to join the group.
Anu Vardhan, wife of director Vishnu Vardhan who revolutionised style with Billa has been signed up to style the actors. So for Udhayanidhi Stalin of Red Giant Movies, this has been a coup of sorts.
