Theri singer returns for Viswasam composer - check out who it is!

One of the most popular singers in south India, Vaikom Vijayalakshmi has garnered a huge fan following since her entry into the film industry. A Gayatri Veena expert, Vijayalakshmi has won several awards including the Kerala State Film Award for Best Singer twice while also collaborating with reputed composers in Tamil cinema among whom are Yuvan Shankar Raja, Santhosh Narayanan, D. Imman, G. V. Prakash, Ghibran and many others. Her song "Vaayaadi Pettha Pulla" in last year’s Tamil sports drama Kanaa sung alongside Sivarkarthikeyan’s daughter Aaradhana Sivakarthikeyan went on to become a massive hit while also crooning her voice in the 'Thalapathy' Vijay and Samantha blockbuster, Theri, in which she sang the chart-buster, 'En Jeevan' song. Having been the voice behind numerous hit songs in Tamil, composer D. Imman has now announced on Twitter that Vaikom Vijayalakshmi has sung a song in the upcoming film, Seeru, which has Jiiva in the lead role.
