ETimes spoke to singer Kumar Sanu who was all praise for the talented music composer. “It is a very proud moment. Keeravani sir has done some wonderful work in his career. He is a very talented musician. The song ‘Naatu Naatu’ is very rhythmic and has a melody. It has been sung very boldly”, Sanu said.

He added, “His win at the Oscars has put India on the global map once again. Thanks to the entire team for this honour. India is indeed creating waves at the global platform, especially the film industry from down south.”
