Call it the Kolaveri effect. The song written and rendered by Dhanush for his next film 3 (Moondru) has been creating a huge buzz across the world. Seems like the musical cameo by the Tamil actor is having a domino effect on the Southern film industry. For the first time ever, Mahesh Babu will try his hands at playback singing for his new film Businessman.
According to top sources, Mahesh and director Puri Jagannadh are all geared up to take the industry and film buffs by a musical storm —something on the lines of the Kolaveri rage. The ace director and the actor are crooning for the title track of their ongoing film Businessman. All the credit goes to the music director Thaman to get the two of them sing.
Confirms Thaman, “Businessman will have our heartthrob Mahesh and Puri Garu singing for the theme of the film. It is gonna rock the world.”
The icing on the cake is that the track will have a making video like in the case of Kolaveri Di. Thaman claims, “The song will have a making video, and it’s going to be a crazy hit.”
Mahesh Babu’s previous flick Dookudu is one of the highest grossing films in Tollywood. Though the Dookudu hangover is yet to subside, the actor is busy wrapping up Businessman. The team is picturising a song featuring Mahesh and Kajal Aggarwal in Bangkok. Most parts of the film have been shot in Goa and Mumbai. The film, set to hit theatres on January 11, 2011, is being made in Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam simultaneously. A Hindi version will be released later.
