Duet is a 1994 Tamil-language musical film directed by K. Balachander, starring Prabhu, Meenakshi Seshadri, Ramesh Aravind and Prakashraj. The film's score and soundtrack is composed by A. R. Rahman. Duet's score is centred on the saxophone. The movie was also dubbed in Telugu under the same name and in Hindi as Tu Hi Mera Dil.
The movie is inspired by the 1990 French comedy Cyrano de Bergerac which was about a swashbuckler who’s self-conscious about his long nose and feels his love will go unrequited. When the girl he loves gets infatuated with a dasher, he helps him by pouring his emotions in poems soaked in love. In the Tamil movie, the hero's ungainly nose was replaced by his girth.
The soundtrack of the film by Academy Award winner A. R. Rahman is hailed as a masterpiece.
