Chennai, Jan 28 (IANS) Music director Leon James, who did not stop working despite suffering a huge blow in the form of his dad’s demise as he wanted to ensure that the Dragon unit delivered a song to fans on time, has penned a brief but emotional post to the film’s director Ashwath Marimuthu in which he has said that it was his responsibility to keep up Ashwath’s promise as Ashwath had stood up for him when nobody else did.
In a brief post on X, Leon James, whose father passed away on Monday morning, replied to director Ashwath Marimuthu. He wrote, “You stood for me when nobody did macha. It was my responsibility to keep up your promise. Thank you for singing @SilambarasanTR_sir ! You were phenomenal Hope you all like it.”
On Tuesday evening, soon after releasing the eagerly-awaited break up number ‘Yendi Vittu Pona’ from the film ‘Dragon’, Director Ashwath Marimuthu explained what had happened.
He had said that Leon’s father had passed away early on Monday morning as the final mix of the song was happening.
Stating that the unfortunate event was a shock, the director said that he offered to push the song’s release which was slated for Tuesday evening.
However, Aswath said Leon refused and said, “No macha, let’s stick to the ‘TIME’ that we have promised.”
Recalling that it was a very emotional moment for them, Ashwath said, “He (Leon) was mixing the song in his room and managing his father’s final rites in the hall! I didn’t tell production. That’s the respect he shows for TIME, FANS and common audience who love cinema. Isn’t @leon_james a gem? Dedicating ‘En de vittu pona’ to his father!”
