Oh Sita, Hey Rama, composed by Vishal Chandrashekar and sung by SPB Charan in Telugu and Tamil, was released earlier this month by the makers of “Sita Ramam,” starring Dulquer Salman, Mrunal Thakur, and Rashmika Mandanna. SPB Charan discussed why he chose to sing the song, his collaboration with the music composer and singing for Dulquer Salman, as well as how special the Oh Sita, Hey Rama song is to him.
“While every song is important and very special to me, “Oh Sita, Hey Rama” song is mesmerizing, it is a timeless beautiful song, and I am grateful for the opportunity to sing this song for the Tamil and Telugu version. When I listened to the final product, I thought this song is going to be a big hit,” he said.
Charan goes on, “When you’re going to sing a song, you want to give it your all, I had a strong feeling when I first heard the song that this will be loved by all. But I didn’t expect it to be such a tremendous hit, and the song as a whole is really beautiful.
When asked about the lyrics of the song Oh Sita, Hey Rama, Charan says, “As a singer 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.”
So, what drew him to perform the song? He says the song’s melody and Pallavi drew him in, and the syncopation was so different that he was confident he wanted to try this difficult song with a beautiful tempo.
Charan says that when it came to performing a song for Dulquer Salman, he said, “Once I realized that Dulquer Salman was the main lead in this film, I was hoping that this movie will be done in Tamil as well, and I would get an opportunity to sing in Tamil and Telugu. I’m happy that I did both. I wish I had sung the Malayalam version too. For Dulquer Salman, this is my first song. His talent is something I admire greatly. I’m grateful to be able to sing a song for yet another great performer, and I hope Dulquer enjoyed it as much as I did”
