Manasilaayo shows Rajinikanth and Anirudh in a stylish avatar. Rajinikanth opts for a black suit and dark sunglasses while Anirudh is dressed in a veshti. Manju Warrier also features in the dance number, dressed in a red and gold saree.

The song sees vocals by Yugendran Vasudevan and Deepthi Suresh, with lyrics by Vishnu Edavan and Super Subu. The main draw of the song is that the late Malaysia Vasudevan’s voice has been regenerated using AI for the song.

“Bringing back the legendary MALAYSIA VASUDEVAN’s voice for SUPERSTAR after 27 years!” wrote the producers on Saturday, sharing the news. For the unversed, the Malaysian-Indian playback singer-actor died in 2011 in Chennai. His last film with Rajinikanth was 1987’s Oor Kavalan.
