“Ganesh anthem in Bhagavanth Kesari is a devotional song with a beautiful emotion. Staying true to Balakrishna’s larger than life image, this is a ‘mass’ Ganesh song that’ll definitely play in all pandals in the days to come. Besides the devotional element, the number is equally massy and will portray the bond between Sreeleela and Balakrishna,” Kasarla Shyam assures fans.

The song will also tell what does this avatar of God represent, while revealing the hero’s characterisation, providing necessary elevation in the hook line, he adds. “Thaman is known for his energetic meter, he used trance music without missing local tastes, creating a fusion effect” Anil Ravipudi has great clarity, knows how to extract work from a lyricist, the lyricist states. “It was a joy to work with him.”

Sekhar master has choreographed the number. Sarath Kumar plays another crucial role in the film. C Ram Prasad is the cinematographer for the project while Tammiraju is the editor. Rajeevan is the production designer and V Venkat is the stunt director respectively. S Krishna is the executive producer and Junglee Music acquired the music rights.
