Thaman's Single Tweet brings attention to Two aspects

Music composer Thaman seems to have responded to director Boyapati Srinu's recent comments, which indirectly criticized the background score of "Akhanda." Without explicitly naming anyone, Thaman posted a cryptic reply today, stating, "I don't care, bro." Everyone reported that Thaman indirectly responded to Boyapati Srinu. However, there's another side to this.

The theatrical trailer of Balakrishna's Bhagavanth Kesari was released on Sunday and the film comes up with a tag, "I don't care, bro." At the same time, we also hear that there will be a song in the film with the same title. So, Thaman's fans are defending by mentioning that Thaman's tweet was in sync with his excitement surrounding the movie.

Earlier, director Boyapati had stirred controversy among fans of the acclaimed music composer Thaman by downplaying his work in "Akhanda," despite the film's remarkable success and Thaman's background score receiving praise. In a recent interview, Boyapati suggested that "Akhanda" was such an exceptional film that it could have succeeded even without Thaman's background score.

This is not the first time that Boyapati made such statements. Earlier, Boyapati also faced the heat when he loosely downplayed the work of Devi Sri Prasad for the film, Legend. However, DSP gave a counter to the director on the stage where Boyapati made those comments.

Also, Thaman usually responds to his memes and trolls via social media and so far, no filmmaker has made such a comment on Thaman directly on a public platform. The same Thaman scored the music for Boyapati's last film Skanda and the film failed at the box office. So, this failure could have triggered something between the two.

At the same time, some of Thaman's fans voiced their disagreement with Boyapati's remarks, prompting Thaman to post a tweet to address the controversy and make his stance clear.

Also, it should be noted that Balakrishna used the same statement when he was asked to react to the silence of Jr NTR over the arrest of N Chandra Babu Naidu. Balakrishna even mentioned that it was the caption of his next film. So, 'I don't care' seems to be working well to use in multiple situations.

Whatever it may be, the silence of Thaman and his indirect response has brought attention to the ongoing controversy with Boyapati as well as the film Bhagavanth Kesari.
