For all of you who thought that Vijay’s son Sanjay who danced with papa in the opening number 'Naan Adicha' in Vettaikaran, also lent his voice for his bit, here’s a revelation. The kid singing the song is not Sanjay, but budding singer Ashwath Ajith.
Ashwath, whose parents are into music themselves, began his singing career with a number in the Malayalam movie Currency. His dad Ajith is a drummer, while mom Vinitha is a singer. Ashwath’s playback singing in Tamil got quite a kickstart with three numbers composed by James Vasanthan for Pasanga. “I am a big Vijay fan myself. I admire lots of his dance moves, and am pretty good at imitating them as well. I am very grateful to music director Vijay Anthony for giving me the opportunity to sing in the Vettaikaran music album. I was so thrilled when I got the call and even more excited when I heard the lines,” admits the happy sixth grader. Upcoming songs for the youngster are in Dhrogi [Tamil] and Mounam Sammadham [Telugu].
