Music director Thaman has recently faced heavy criticism, especially regarding his mixing style. Many listeners feel that his work has become repetitive and lacks freshness, including his latest single for Balakrishna’s Akhanda 2.
Just a few days ago, Thaman raised expectations by promising exciting commercial songs for Prabhas’s The Raja Saab. Fans eagerly awaited the first single, Rebel Saab, which was released last Sunday. Unfortunately, the response has been disappointing.
Some fans themselves expressed frustration over the weak output, while Thaman gave a subtle counter to the criticism through an Instagram story, stating that he will deal in his own style with anyone who comes his way.
Although his reply silenced critics for the moment, words alone may not be enough. To truly win back audiences, Thaman needs to deliver strong and refreshing music once again. All eyes are now on his work for Akhanda 2 and The Raja Saab. If he succeeds, the same people who criticized him will likely celebrate his comeback.
