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.
