The lyrics written by Sweekar Agasthi, along with rap verses by Asura, blend satire and humor while reflecting the chaos faced by the film’s protagonist. The vibrant video accompanying the track adds further entertainment with energetic choreography, colorful visuals and spontaneous performances by the cast.
In the video, Tharun Bhascker delivers his trademark deadpan humor while navigating absurd situations, while Vishnu Oi brings a lively buddy vibe to the narrative. The visuals also feature a majestic lion symbolizing the resilient “Gaayapadda Simham,” adding a symbolic element to the playful presentation. Both Sweekar Agasthi and Asura also appear on screen, enhancing the fun and energetic tone of the song.
The film also stars Faria Abdullah and Maanasa Choudhary as the female leads. Supporting roles are played by Harshavardhan and Subhalekha Sudhakar.
