Pump up the volume and work up a sweat with this on-fire Tamil playlist.

Today’s Tamil film music includes a nod to its traditional roots, but it also mines a rich vein of worldwide trends, including EDM, pop, hip-hop and more. In this collection of current hits, soulful choruses pair with orchestral interludes while chunky synths add dance beats to well-timed bass drops. This playlist is updated regularly—if you like a song, add it to your library.

Break out your best dance moves—we’ve lined up a genre-bending array of carefully curated Tamil earworms designed to get you swaying. Traditional instrumentation meets modern-day electronic sounds in the latest scintillating Tamil releases, updated weekly—f you like what you hear, add it to your library.

It’s not a Tamil wedding until the nadaswaram bellows out or percussive instruments such as the thavil and mridangam add energising beats to the ceremony. In addition, pop and film soundtrack tunes go beyond the traditional, adding a modern flavour to the celebration of love and togetherness. This playlist includes many much-adored songs that seem just made for a fairy-tale kalyanam.

Matters of the heart, captured in song. If you hear something you like, add it to your playlist.

The ’10s saw a series of viral Tamil hits win legions of fans across India. Chennai’s greatest asset, filmi powerhouse A. R. Rahman, reached new romantic highs with the swooning, ’90s-laced soundtrack to Kaatru Veliyidai (2017), earning him a National Film Award for Best Music Direction. But the decade was also marked by young film composer Anirudh Ravichander’s meteoric rise. He debuted with a bang—the soundtrack to 3 (2011) included the folk-fuelled Tanglish smash “Why This Kolaveri Di”—and he followed up with a barrage of rap, rock and koothu-powered bangers featuring the likes of Dhanush.
