Its Father, Son, Grandson for 'Rajanna'

The film ‘Rajanna’ has been getting a lot of curiosity. The reason for that is the presence of Nagarjuna in the project and also the period backdrop during the Telangana agitation time. Now, another highlight is part of the film. This is about three generations working for the same film.

Apparently, Nag who is back into Twitter has given a tweet which goes -My favourite song in Rajanna is gijigadu/just can't stop humming it/Wish I could sing :(.

Now, this Gijjigadu…number was written by Siva Dutta, father of music director M M Keeravani. Incidentally, the music for ‘Rajanna’ is being composed by M M Keeravani. And finally, Keeravani’s son Kalabhairava has reportedly rendered the song. Not many know about this family link.

As such, Siva Datta is from Kovvur but he wrote with a strong Telangana feel keeping in view 1948 era. Siva Datta also happens to be a very well know poet of his time and even the great Vishwanadha Satyanarayana also appreciated him for his works. That way, three generations are making the most out of it.
