Bhagavanth Kesari vs Jana Nayagan War Erupts Online

South Indian film fans are fixated on music right now. Anirudh usually owns the space with Vijay’s films, and expectations were high for the Jana Nayagan teaser score. But the response was muted far less buzz than usual.

That shift gave Thaman room to dominate. His score for Bhagavanth Kesari is winning praise, with social media users claiming it outshines Anirudh’s recent work. Some observers even suggested that Jana Nayagan echoes Bhagavanth Kesari, adding fuel to the debate.

Discussions on Reddit reflect the divide. For instance, one fan admitted they prefer Anirudh but felt Thaman’s BGM felt “way better” this time. Another Reddit user argued Anirudh has become repetitive, while Thaman keeps raising the bar.

This isn’t a small clash it represents a real shift in who sets musical trends in South cinema. Anirudh’s streak of hits, from Kaththi to Leo, is still impressive, but Thaman’s recent output is giving fans fresh reasons to debate. Whether Anirudh rebounds in the next glimpse or Thaman pulls ahead, one thing’s clear: music now has its own battlefield and Bhagavanth Kesari isn’t letting go without a fight.
