For the first time, Isaignani Ilaiyaraaja will be hosting a live concert in Coimbatore, organised by Arun Medias and Maham Enterprises in association with SIEEA. Titled Rajathi Raja, the event will happen on June 9 at the Codissia Ground. It is expected that a handpicked list from Ilaiyaraaja vast discography of songs will be performed.  

The concert will see the legendary duo of Ilaiyaraaja and SP Balasubrahmanyam perform on stage once again after the recent Isai Celebrates Isai concert in Chennai. The duo had a much-publicised fallout over royalty issues two years ago.

Along with Ilaiyaraaja and SPB, singers Mano, Usha Uthup, Haricharan, Madhu Balakrishnan, and Bavatharini will be also be performing at the event, backed by an orchestra from Hungary. Latha Rajinikanth and her daughter Aishwarya will also be part of the event. The proceeds from the concert will go to Peace for Children, an NGO that the former runs.

A grand stage has been constructed by over 300 people exclusively for the event. Tickets for the event are priced from Rs 500 and are available on online portals such as Book My Show and PayTM. 

The Isai Celebrates Isai in Chennai saw Ilaiyaraaja perform with some of his frequent collaborators such as SPB, KJ Yesudas, Bombay Jayashree, and Usha Uthup on the occasion of his birthday.
