Dedicate 'Dekhlenge Saala' to the man who taught me that life is all about confidence, says Devi Sri Prasad
Hyderabad, Dec 16
Music director Devi Sri Prasad has now dedicated the chartbuster 'Dekhlenge Saala' from actor Pawan Kalyan's upcoming action entertainer 'Ustaad Bhagat Singh' to his late father, with whom he shares a strong bond.
Taking to his X timeline, Devi Sri Prasad, who has delivered several chartbusters in both Tamil and Telugu cinema, wrote, "To the man who taught me that life is all about confidence... I dedicate the song #DekhLengeSaala. Dearest daddy..Love you & miss you. Can’t believe it’s been 10 years.. #SriSatyaMurthyGaru."
Reacting to this tweet of Devi Sri Prasad, the film's director Harish Shankar wrote, "Sir ji, as everyone knows… ‘Kevvu Keka’—the iconic hook word—was given by your daddy back then. Now, dedicating ‘Dekhlenge Saala’ is not just a gesture; It stands as a true honour to the entire family of 'Ustaad Bhagat Singh'."
Responding to director Harish Shankar's tweet, Devi Sri Prasad wrote, "Thank you and love you sir ji. Can never forget the conversation you had with daddy on the day of KEVVU KEKA recording and the way he showed his love for you !!! His blessings are always with us dear sir ji @harish2you."
For the unaware, the makers of the film recently released the lyrical video of the pulsating number 'Dekhlenge Saala' from the film, much to the delight of fans and film buffs.
The foot tapping, high energy number, which was set to tune by Devi Sri Prasad, was rendered by Vishal Dadlani and Haripriya. The song that looks to instil confidence in the hearts of listeners has gone on to emerge a superhit.
In fact, the makers of the film, Mythri Movie Makers, confirmed that the song had broken records stating that the first single had clocked over a whopping 29.6 million views within the first 24 hours.
One other interesting aspect of the song was that the makers, in a first-of-its-kind move, got one lakh fans of the actor to release the lyric sheet of the number, ahead of its release on Saturday evening.
The film has triggered huge excitement among fans and film buffs.
Sreeleela plays the female lead in this film, which is being produced on a grand scale by Naveen Yerneni and Y. Ravi Shankar under the Mythri Movie Makers banner.

The song is incredibly energetic and the lyrics are powerful. It's heartwarming to see such a public display of love and respect for a parent. The 29.6 million views in 24 hours speaks volumes about its quality. Can't wait for the movie!
DSP is a true rockstar! His father Sri Satya Murthy Garu must be so proud watching from above. The connection from "Kevvu Keka" to "Dekhlenge Saala" shows how a father's influence shapes an artist's journey. Full paisa vasool song!
While the tribute is touching, I feel the marketing around the song's release with one lakh fans releasing the lyric sheet was a bit over the top. The song is good enough to stand on its own without such gimmicks. Just my two cents.
This news made my day! As someone who lost a parent, I understand that void. To channel that emotion into creating a chartbuster that instills confidence in others is truly inspirational. DSP Anna, more power to you! â¤ï¸
The numbers are staggering – 29.6 million views! The collaboration with Vishal Dadlani and Haripriya seems to have worked magic. The whole project, from music to the scale of production, sounds grand. Looking forward to seeing it on the big screen.
