======================================================

In addition to the songs, Raja is also known for his wonderful BGMs in tamil film world. His background score elevates an ordinary scene to an extradinary one. Aan Paavam is one such movie where his BGM was simply outstanding. For actor/director, R.Pandiyarajan it was his second movie (after "Kanni Raasi"). Actress Seetha made her debut in this movie. VKR as Pandiyarajan and Pandiyan's father was hillarious. Pandiyarajan hit jackpot with this movie. Eventhough, it's been more than 20 years since the movie got released, some of the dialogues from this movie has attained cult-status and are still being used by youngsters who were born much later. One of my all-time favorite tamil, comedy movies.
