Allu Arjun has always been known for his sharp music sense, and most of his films feature blockbuster albums that prove it. However, reports suggest he is now making an unconventional choice for his next project with Tamil director Atlee.
The buzz is that young Tamil composer Sai Abhyankar is likely to be the music director for the film. While the official confirmation is still awaited, several reports suggest he will be scoring the soundtrack. Sai is best known for songs like “Aasa Kooda” and “Sithiri Puthiri”.
Sai Abhyankar is also set to make his Tamil debut with the film Dude, starring Pradeep Ranganathan. The first song from Dude, titled “Oorum Blood”, was recently released and has already sparked discussion among listeners for its unusual style.
The track has a floating soundtrack without a regular tune, which is a signature of Sai’s music. While this approach may work for newcomers or small films, many fans feel it does not suit a star hero like Allu Arjun. The debate is actively continuing on social media.
Fans are worried that if Sai uses the same offbeat style for Allu Arjun, the results may not connect with mass audiences. Since Allu Arjun enjoys pan-India popularity, the music needs to have wider appeal. This has made his fan base anxious about the choice.
Although Anirudh Ravichander seemed like the safer and more conventional option, Atlee and Allu Arjun appear keen on Sai Abhyankar. If that is the final call, the makers will need to ensure the young composer delivers the right kind of music to match the star’s stature.
