Composer Santhosh Narayanan: Dhanush was mentor for 'Jagame Thandhiram' songs

When asked about Dhanush, Santhosh was all heart, he exclaimed, “I have always told him that he is one of the best pop music artistes in India. Probably one of the best. He can do totally different films simultaneously. He can also write. He can also create a song like 'Rowdy Baby'. He has a great knack for understanding what people like in this day and age. For 'Jagame Thandhiram', I would send him songs, and although he has had so many big hits, he would stick to what this film needed. He was more of a mentor for the songs of 'Jagame Thandhiram'. Though he doesn't accept it, I would call him the mentor of this album."

The crime drama film is directed by Karthik Subbaraj and also stars Aishwarya Lekshmi, along with Kalaiyarasan and Joju George. The film marks the Indian debut of Scottish actor James Cosmo, and is set to release on Netflix on June 18.
