DC is performing well at the box office. The Tamil film starring director Lokesh Kanagaraj in his acting debut earned praise from audiences and critics alike, with particular attention to Anirudh's music and background score. Months ahead of the film's release, the ‘Raga of Revenge’ was shared on YouTube and became a hit. Now in an interaction with Mashable India and Sun TV, Anirudh has shared how the hit track came to be.
Anirudh shares how Raga of Revenge was created
During the chat, Anirudh said, “This was made not as a track. It was made because this film's trailer was to be played in Cannes. Just a couple of days before we had to submit it, probably about 48 hours before, we got to know that the trailer would be sent to the film festival, so I had to score for the trailer. We thought why not release it online as well, it would be cool. It was earlier to the film's release; generally we release trailers closer to the date.”
After release, Anirudh says that there were a lot of requests for the track to be put separately. “I loaded the visual and it was going to Cannes and I thought let us be as Indian as it can be so that was the idea in my head. Then I thought why not make it a South-Indian rhythm with Hindustani vocal! Show them both North and South of India! We started with the rhythm first and the idea was to have a proper South Indian beat and then the North came in. Once I had the vocals I started producing it,” he added.

About DC
{{/usCountry}}Directed by Arun Matheswaran, DC is a modern adaptation of the Devdas story. The film follows Devadas, also known as Das, a violent gangster who is estranged from his father. His relationship with Parvathy, a bar singer, is cut short, while Chandra, an abused and exploited prostitute, sees hope in Das.
An excerpt from the Hindustan Times review of the film reads, "DC might have a familiar story to tell, but Arun Matheswaran does enough to ensure you don’t know what’s coming next. Lokesh makes a stellar debut, as Wamiqa and Krish aid him with their dependable performances. For once, a tale of a saviour trying to deliver justice in his own manner doesn’t rub you the wrong way. DC is a beautifully brutal tale of people broken by the system that lingers long after it’s done. To me, that's a win."
