The newly released song “Chikiri” from Peddi has become the talk of the internet — trending across social media platforms and amassing millions of views, likes, and shares. Yet, despite its viral success, the audience seems sharply divided over its musical quality.
Many fans believe the song’s massive reach is driven more by Ram Charan’s star power and A. R. Rahman’s iconic name than by its actual composition. One listener commented, “I loved the song mainly for Ram Charan’s dance moves. It reminds me a bit of Gang Leader’s ‘Sunday Anannura..’ song, but beyond that, it feels ordinary and lacks the punch of a Devi Sri Prasad number.”
Others echoed similar sentiments, suggesting Rahman’s style might not resonate as strongly with today’s audience. “A. R. Rahman is a legend, no doubt, but not every composition clicks. ‘Chikiri’ doesn’t seem to connect with the current generation’s musical taste,” another user noted.
Comparisons also surfaced with contemporary composers. “If Thaman or DSP had scored this, it might’ve had more energy. The adrenaline rush is missing — the song is trending only because of Ram Charan’s stardom,” read one online remark.
However, not everyone agrees. Several fans praised the track, calling it a refreshing and magical return for Rahman. “Excellent music! After a long time, Rahman has recaptured his spark,” wrote one enthusiastic listener.
Summing up the divided sentiment, another fan shared, “Some love it, some don’t — that’s the story of ‘Chikiri’. I’m waiting for the next track from Peddi to outshine this one. I say this as a true fan of both A. R. Rahman and Ram Charan.”
