Development
[edit]Amaran is Prakash's maiden collaboration with both Sivakarthikeyan and Rajkumar. Initially Harris Jayaraj was considered to compose the musical score, before Prakash being chosen.[1][2] Prakash's inclusion was confirmed on May 2023.[3][4] Soon after his inclusion, he started composing the tunes while parallely working on other projects. In June 2024, he revealed that he had almost completed working on the film's music.[5] According to Periasamy, Prakash had composed five songs for the film, with two of them being fast-paced numbers.[6] In late-September, it was revealed that Prakash had further composed two bit tracks after watching the film's final edit.[citation needed]

Singles
