The Anish Kuruvilla-directed Telugu web series Gods of Dharmapuri (G.O.D) was indeed a breath of fresh air for the regional space, that was struggling to find its feet amid a flurry of Hindi web shows till then. Many have hailed this as a tale where ‘Gangs of Wasseypur-meets-KGF’ amid a Godfather-ish setting.
The theme song of the series titled ‘Rakasi Loya’ was one of the major highlights of the series, whose theme is conveyed in its brief yet poignant lyrics. Shaktikanth Karthick, the man who had composed for the Sekhar Kammula-blockbuster Fidaa, had teamed up with veteran lyricist Suddala Ashok Teja for the same.
Upon popular demand, the makers have now released the single from the series on Youtube, a first of its kind in the Telugu digital space. The haunting vocals from Ramya Behera add a lot of charm to the two-minute song that’s also effectively utilised as a part of the background score through the episodes of G.O.D. Here’s hoping the second season of the series too has something great in-store. The series stars Satya Dev, Karthik Ratnam, Chandini Chowdary and Samyukta Hornad in lead roles.
