RRR’s ‘Naatu Naatu’ composer MM Keeravaani reveals how he celebrates his success; says ‘at the most, I will go to a bakery and buy some croissants’ – Times of India
He said that the feeling is good. But, it doesn’t leave him in a state where he is shouting out loud and celebrating by calling friends and attending champagne parties. He doesn’t do that.
Keeravaani added that in his 34-year-long career, he has seen many ups and downs. His project ‘Baahubali’ earned over Rs 600 crore, breaking all the records. Even then, he did not celebrate anything. That is because if he celebrates his success, it may leave me in a good mood at that moment. But later, if he comes across a failure, it will leave him depressed. He is happy with whatever is happening. At most, he will go to a bakery and buy some croissants, Keeravaani told Hindustan Times.
The composer, who is known by the name MM Kreem in Bollywood, also spoke about the Oscar nomination for the Best Original Song category. According to him, people will get to know about Indian culture and music, which may open doors wider than ever for the world to embrace Indian music, culture, and literature. He also remarked that our culture is not inferior to any other culture in the world. We have got Hindustani music and Carnatic music, which have several raga subsets in them.
He went on to add that this rich Indian classical music can be explored further by enthusiasts and aspirants from the West, which is very good. According to him, the more you explore, the more you are enriched. ‘Naatu Naatu’ is just the beginning and we have miles to go.
The composer has also been honoured with the Padma Shri this year, but the humble Keeravani wants to use the opportunity for the greater good. According to him, that’s how he is going to use this newly acquired fame.
