Fans of S P Balasubrahmanyam were in for a melodious surprise when the makers of Rajinikanth's Annaatthe released the legendary singer's final song on Monday. The track Annaatthe Annaatthe is the first single from the upcoming movie. To mark the special day, superstar Rajinikanth remembered the late singer, who has been his voice for 45 years. SPB died last year after contracting COVID-19. Praising the singer's prowess, Rajinikanth penned a heartwarming note in Tamil script. The actor said that he had "never dreamed that this would be SPB's last song for him". The actor ended his note, “My love for SPB will live through his sweet voice forever."
45 வருடங்கள் என் குரலாக வாழ்ந்த எஸ்பிபி அவர்கள் அண்ணாத்தே படத்தில் எனக்காகப் பாடிய பாடலின் படப்பிடிப்பின் போது, இதுதான் அவர் எனக்குப் பாடும் கடைசிப் பாடலாக இருக்கும் என்று நான் கனவில் கூட நினைக்கவில்லை. என் அன்பு எஸ்பிபி தன் இனிய குரலின் வழியாக என்றும் வாழ்ந்து கொண்டே இருப்பார்.
