Vaali, whose legitimate name is TS Rangarajan, has been known for his battling spirit. As per Chennai-based political reporter and editorialist Sudhangan, a companion of the lyricist, Vaali went to the city from Srirangam in the 1950s, attempting to get a break in Kollywood.

A couple of years later of deadlocks, Vaali was so baffled at not having the ability to break the stranglehold that lyricist Kannadasan had over the film business, he had chosen to pack his packs and take off.

"Playback vocalist PB Srinivas -who passed away as of late -happened to see Vaali pressing up and chose to sing him the melody Mayakama Kalakama from the 1962 motion picture 'sumai Thangi'.
