The repetitive usage of same tunes, same beats and same orchestrization led to a decrease in demand for SS Thaman compositions. On relative basis, the number of films SS Thaman is working today has no comparison with projects he handled in last six to twelve months. Looks like his busy schedules have come down drastically just due to audience showing lack of interest on his movies. At this juncture, Nagarjuna is reported to have roped in SS Thaman for music direction of Akhil’s debut film to be directed by VV Vinayak.
After the super hit ‘Race Gurram,’ the graph of SS Thaman has fallen down. He was continuously at the receiving end from critics. More serious are the musically disastrous films ‘Rabhasa’ and ‘Aagadu.’ Definitely, Thaman needs a break to bring quality side within him-self by analyzing the past mistakes. Has Nag done a right thing by jumping on to SS Thaman? This is a decision which shocked Akkineni admirers.
