“Music is my life, without music, I will just perish, I cannot perform. Whenever I perform, there is some music running in my head and I perform for that music,” the 29-year-old said at the launch of the cover of a magazine featuring him and actor Sonam Kapoor.

“Music is my food, my love, my life , everything,” he added.

Dhanush’s song, Why this kolaveri di, became a rage in 2012. He had penned and sung it.
