I’d want to highlight the song’s overall programming, the atmosphere, feel of the melody, and the way the string section comes into place, and once again, Kudos to Vishal Bro for this incredible work.”

On working with music director Vishal Chandrashekhar, he says, “Vishal is so grounded and extremely accommodating. He was fine with the way I was singing. He did correct me occasionally, but he’s a singer’s composer, and he puts the vocalist at ease during the recording process.

Charan says he willing to try new things, “I listen to latest music mostly to stay in touch with what’s going on as far as trends are concerned. I enjoy compositions by Anirudh, Taman, Devi Sri Prasad, and Vishal Chandrashekhar.
