Music Directors Causing Chaos: Delays Disrupting Big Releases!

The music in Indian cinema is often the soul of the story, but lately, it seems the maestros behind the magic may be adding turbulence rather than harmony. With major music directors like Anirudh, Thaman, and Devi Sri Prasad reportedly causing delays, some are wondering if these music wizards are getting a bit too carried away. The most recent buzz revolves around "Pushpa 2," where Allu Arjun is set to dazzle audiences on December 5. With pre-bookings already underway overseas and post-production rushing to wrap up, a last-minute shift involving music director Devi Sri Prasad has added unexpected tension to the film’s release schedule.

Rumor has it that Allu Arjun wasn’t entirely satisfied with Devi Sri Prasad's initial background score, leading the producers to bring Thaman on board to save the day. With such a late-stage change, there’s now concern about whether "Pushpa 2" will meet its scheduled release date. Fans and insiders alike are watching closely, wondering if these last-minute adjustments are becoming a pattern among top-tier music directors.

Anirudh Ravichander, another sought-after composer, is also in the spotlight for delay issues. Known for his popularity among youth and his involvement in high-profile projects, Anirudh has yet to finalize the score for a film under Gautham Tinnanuri’s direction with Sitara Entertainment. As a result, the film’s December release now hangs in the balance. Fans are frustrated, wondering why these skilled composers are keeping directors and producers on edge with last-minute delays.

Adding to this trend, AR Rahman, though revered for his musical genius, is infamous for taking his time, and even director Shankar, a longtime collaborator, has recently turned to other composers like Anirudh and Thaman for punctuality’s sake. Fans can’t help but chuckle at the idea that these talented music directors are perhaps “hitting a different note” with their priorities, more tuned to their busy concert schedules than the calls of filmmakers.
