He Is The Second Hero Of Thandel
There is no exaggeration in saying that Devi Sri Prasad has been specially mentioned in every positive review of Thandel that was released yesterday. As producer Allu Aravind mentioned at the success press meet, Devi is the second hero of the film.
Before the release of Pushpa 2, there were numerous comments about the background score, and Devi has given a perfect response to those with the BGM in Thandel. Every review and public comment has particularly highlighted this. With the songs already being hit, the focus naturally shifted to the background music, and Devi did complete justice to it, making the fans happy.
There are several examples that highlight Devi’s brilliance in Thandel. In the first half, when Raju finishes his hunt and returns, taking Sathya up to the Clock tower to express his love, the score in the background matches the running sequence of Chaitu and Sai Pallavi perfectly.
Devi’s craftsmanship is evident in the sorrowful moments when Raju sings “Bujjithalli” and in the friendship episode before the climax. These are just a few examples. Once known for his vintage touch in songs like Varsham and Nuvvostaanante Nenoddantana, Devi now brings a similar magic in Thandel.
In any case, music lovers are extremely happy. As we enter 2025, Thandel is becoming the first musical hit of the year, with the collections pointing in a promising direction. Devi Sri Prasad will next work on the music for Good Bad Ugly, with GV Prakash Kumar taking charge of the background score, as was previously mentioned.
In any case, Devi has proven that he’s back. There are also high expectations for the multi-starrer Kubera with Nagarjuna and Dhanush, though the release date has not been confirmed yet.
