Cops take offence at Pawan Kalyan’s song

“WE HAVE HIGH REGARD FOR COPS”: THAMAN

In the meanwhile, the song’s composer S.S. Thaman says that they have the highest regard for cops, and that the song arises only out of a situation from the film.

“In the film, Pawan Kalyan is a nature lover (apart from being a cop), and as such he gets himself posted in a green forest. When people try to spoil the peace and environmen­t and irritate him, that’s when we bring out this song,” Thaman elaborates, adding that while they have taken a few cinematic liberties, their intention was never to hurt anyone. “It’s just for the film’s situation, the song has been put up so.”

The composer further revealed that Pawan Kalyan used to even salute the cop uniform before he wore the costume every day. “Playing a cop role calls for utmost responsibi­lity and Pawan garu used to feel inspired donning the Khakis on the sets. Moreover, Pawan garu is someone who respects women, police, etc. So we will never resort to something that invites anything unwanted,” adds Thaman, stating that some of his close friends are cops.

Then, reiteratin­g the whole film unit’s respect for the uniform, Thaman admits that citizens are safe in society because of cops.

“So we have the highest regard for them,” he further states.

Thaman also adds that before releasing the song, the team had even done thorough research on the background, appeal and lyrics of the song. “There is also a song in the film that highlights how difficult it is for a cop during the training and what it takes to become a cop,” he reveals.
