The pre-release event of Hari Hara Veera Mallu was expected to be a grand celebration, but it turned unexpectedly uncomfortable for Powerstar Pawan Kalyan—all thanks to an awkward musical tribute by veteran composer M.M. Keeravaani.
Promoted as a surprise “gift” for Pawan, Keeravaani composed a special song that stitched together titles of Pawan Kalyan’s films. However, what was intended to be a heartfelt homage ended up feeling like a forced compilation rather than a well-thought-out tribute. Keeravaani mentioned that neither the film’s director nor producer knew about the song beforehand, adding to the impression that the piece was hastily put together.
The song started on a nostalgic note, referencing Pawan’s earlier classics with lines like “Gokulamlo Seeta adigindi Attarintiki daaredani…”. But as it progressed, the inclusion of films like Gudumba Shankar, Agnathavasi, and Katamarayudu felt clumsy and disjointed, disrupting the lyrical flow and coherence.
Observers noted Pawan Kalyan’s body language during the performance — he was seen resting his hand on his head and even partially covering his face, clear signs of discomfort and embarrassment. Industry insiders revealed that Pawan was not consulted about the tribute, and if he had been, the song might not have been performed at all.
For reference, similar attempts have been executed more gracefully in the past. Legendary actor NTR’s 1976 film Manushulanta Okkate featured a song that cleverly wove in his movie titles, serving as a masterclass in meaningful tribute. In contrast, Keeravaani’s effort seemed rushed and awkward, detracting from the celebratory spirit of the event.
Honoring a star’s legacy through creative expressions requires sensitivity and finesse. Instead of energizing the atmosphere, this musical gesture became an uncomfortable moment, one that both Pawan Kalyan and his fans might prefer to forget.
