Rajni Hits - Kaadhalin Deepam Ondru

This is a super hit song from the movie Thambikku Entha Ooru starring Rajnikanth, Madhavi, Sulakshana, Sathyaraj and others. This again is a song composed by Illayaraja in the 80s and is one of the favourites of Rajnikanth's fans as is evident from the 160 odd comments this song has evoked along with its quarter of a million views on Youtube. The comedy sequence featuring Rajnikanth and a snake in this movie had received rave reviews from the masses and the film critics as well. The movie had also done well. Rajnikanth had initially done negative roles and then had become a very successful hero. Sathyaraj who had done a negative role in this and several movies during that period had followed in the same footsteps and had become a successful hero later.

Kamal Hits - Kanmaniye Paesu

This is a hit song from the movie Khaakhi Chattai starring Kamal Hassan, Ambika, Sathyaraj and others. The music for this movie had been composed by Illayaraja. The other heroine in this movie had been Madhavi. This movie is sort of a milestone in Sathyaraj's movie career. It is in this movie that Sathyaraj had delivered hi famous dialogue 'Thakadu Thakadu'. Though Kamal Hassan himself is not too keen to do purely commercial movie like these it is only these kind of movies of his which have really done extremely well at the box office thereby helping him come out with his other 'experimental' movies such as Gunaa, Anbe Sivam and the likes.

Sathyaraj Hits - Adi Aathaadi

This is a super hit song from the movie Kadalora Kavithaigal starring Sathyaraj, Rekha and others. This was the debut movie for Rekha. The movie was directed by Bharathiraja. Bharathiraja had the sentimental habit of naming the heroines of his movies with names starting with the alphabet 'R' (Radhika, Rathi, Radha, Revathi, Ranjani, Rekha....!). Sathyaraj had mentioned about his experience of having worked with Bharathiraja in this movie in a comical manner in an interview. Whenever Bharathiraja had enacted an emotional scene in front of Sathyaraj, to extract performance from him, Sathyaraj had actually found it funny and used to laugh, much to irritation of Bharathiraja! The music had been composed by Illayaraja.

Kannukkul Nooru Nilavaa - Not an Illayaraja Hit!

This hit song from the movie Vedham Puthithu is not composed by Illayaraja! Many mistake it to be so. There was a period where Bharathiraja and Illayaraja had some problems and were not working with each other and this movie was one such movie and the music for this movie was composed by Devendran (a great composition).One other movie for which he has composed music is Mannukkul Vairam.

Sathyaraj Hits - Methuvaa Methuvaa

This is a hit song from the movie - Anna Nagar Muthal Theru. The first part of the movie during which Janakaraj tries in vain to stop Sathyaraj from staying at his house is hilarious.
