Devi Sri Prasad is undeniably one of the finest music directors Telugu cinema has ever witnessed. Over the years, his compositions have transformed average films into hits and elevated hits into blockbusters. His songs have become timeless, continuing to dominate playlists and capture hearts.
However, in recent years, DSP faced a challenging phase. Except for Pushpa: The Rise, most of his albums failed to create the impact expected from a composer of his caliber. While albums like Waltair Veerayya were decent, they didn’t quite reach the heights fans had hoped for.
But now, things have taken a remarkable turn. With three back-to-back big releases — Pushpa 2: The Rule, Thandel, and Kuberaa — DSP has made a strong musical comeback, delivering what can confidently be called a hat-trick of successes.
Pushpa 2 is already a nationwide sensation. Its songs have gone viral, and the soundtrack is being widely celebrated. DSP’s music has played a pivotal role in building anticipation for the film well ahead of its release.
In the case of Thandel, despite mixed reviews for the film itself, DSP’s album provided the much-needed momentum to push it to box office success. The tracks resonated deeply with audiences and became some of the most streamed songs of the year.
Now, with Kuberaa—which released today—the film is receiving positive reviews from both critics and viewers. Alongside powerful performances by Dhanush and Nagarjuna and Sekhar Kammula’s direction, DSP’s music is praised for adding emotional depth. Although the number of songs is limited, the background score stands out, perfectly complementing the film’s mood and tone.
Before this resurgence, DSP also scored Kanguva. While the film fell short of expectations, his work was noted and appreciated.
With this impressive comeback, DSP is clearly entering a new and exciting phase of his career. He is once again the go-to composer for major projects. On the horizon, he is working on Ustad Bhagat Singh—reuniting with Pawan Kalyan and Harish Shankar—and also scoring the debut film of Gali Janardhan Reddy’s son, Junior.
