Lyricist Ramajogayya Sastry has faced severe criticism from Prabhas fans for the lyrics of the first single from the actor’s upcoming film The Raja Saab. Fans described the lines as amateurish and felt they fell short of the expectations set by a big-budget Prabhas project.
In response to the backlash, Ramajogayya tweeted: “Katha, sandarbham, director vision thaginattu paata untundhi. Prathi paata elevation ayinaa bore koduthundhi kadha. Adhe kaavaalante marosari raasukundhaam. Mana daggara leni saruka enti; mana darling kosamegaa.” The phrase “Mana daggara leni saruka enti” in particular drew ire, with many netizens interpreting it as arrogant.
Several fans expressed their displeasure online. Some commented, “Don’t overrate yourself. Learn to be humble. Your so-called ‘saruku’ is nothing compared to great poets like Seetharama Sastry, Veturi, and Chandrabose. Even newer lyricists are writing better than you.” Others wrote, “Elevation or feel-good, whatever the genre, lyrics must be catchy enough to sing along. If there’s another song, please write better lyrics this time,” and “Sirivennela Sitaramasastry garu wrote lines like ‘height enthuntaado kolavalani pisthe…’ and ‘mechanical lab lo metals ku rekulu…’. On the other side, you wrote ‘chalore chalore chal…’. There should be variation, guruji.” Some fans even asked bluntly, “Lyrics meeru raasaraa? Mi abbayi raasaraa? All experiments should be on us only aa?” while others criticised, “If a song gets praise, Ramajogayya takes credit. If it flops, he blames the director’s vision. A big escapist.”
This is not the first time Ramajogayya has been trolled. Previously, Mahesh Babu fans reacted angrily to a tweet that allegedly referred to fans as “dogs.” He also sparked controversy with remarks about Devara and Acharya, which some interpreted as jabs at the mega fan community.
Unlike previous incidents, this backlash is focused directly on his professional work as a lyricist. Fans feel that given the high expectations surrounding a Prabhas film, Ramajogayya must put in more effort and prove himself.
