Keeravani is basking under the glory of his song Naatu Naatu getting the prestigious Oscars for the best song. Speaking to scribes, he has been detailing about the song's music, lyrics etc and now much to the delight of all Tamil Tambis, he compared Naatu Naatu to Dhanush's song Why This Kolaveri Di tuned by Anirudh Ravichander.
During his interaction, he surprised all by saying he did not expect award for the song and also accepted that it is not even a song. He said "Naatu Naatu is just a fast commercial number for which not in my wildest dreams I expected any award. Forget the Oscars, it's not an award song. But, what made it gain worldwide attention was the contribution of the director and the choreographer. "
Keeravani added ""A very uniquely person composed the dance steps, which became viral everywhere. So, all credit goes to Rajamouli and Prem Rakshit majorly and of course, Mr. Chandra Bose. And, speaking about Mr. Chandra Bose, though he just melted his brain into writing excellent thoughts throughout the song, but who cares about the entire song? The world cares about only 'Naatu Naatu Naatu, Veera Naatu'."
He shared "They are like a mantra. It attained a mantaram status than a song status. That’s why it became viral like Kolaveri, you may say.""It is known that Why this Kolaveri Di became a rage due to its words, Anirudh Ravichander's music and Dhanush's voice.
