Talking about the song, Ramana Gogula revealed that music director Bheems Ceciroleo had asked him to sing this particular song. “I was in the USA when Bheems called and asked me to sing this song. I told him to send the lyrics, which I liked. There’s a lot of creative freedom when I sing this song,” said Ramana Gogula about the song. He also praised the other singer, Madhupriya, who sang along with him very well. “This is the first time I’ve sung a song for another music composer. Venkatesh is my good friend and director Anil, music director Bheems are lovely people. My first film as music director was with Venkatesh’s Premante Idera. So, with all these combinations, I decided to sing this song,” said Ramana Gogula.
Regarding his hiatus, Ramana explained that he had been working in the USA for several years. His last film as music director was 1000 Abaddalu. “I worked for a multi-national company in the USA and I’m interested in technology, so I worked on Artificial Intelligence and Data Analytics projects for that company,” said Ramana. The music composer expressed his eagerness to work again and is waiting for the right opportunity. “At present, music directors are giving excellent music, but there’s a gap for a new kind of music and I want to fill that gap. I have some great ideas in music and I’m confident that I can deliver good music,” said the music composer. He has worked on four films with Pawan Kalyan in the past and is now happy to see Pawan Kalyan in a prominent position as the Deputy CM of Andhra Pradesh.
