The second single “Vadhalane” from the upcoming romantic entertainer Chennai Love Story was launched grandly in Hyderabad by Oscar-winning music composer M. M. Keeravaani. Starring Kiran Abbavaram and Sri Gouri Priya in lead roles, the film is being produced by SKN and Sai Rajesh under Amrutha Productions and Mass Movie Makers banners. Sai Rajesh has penned the story, while Ravi Namburii is directing the film. Melody Brahma Mani Sharma is composing the music.
Several noted music directors including Madhavapeddi Suresh, Kalyani Malik, Anup Rubens, Hari Gowra, Mark K Robin, Sinjith Yerramilli, Chaitan Bharadwaj, Sweekar Agasthi, Suresh Bobbili, Vivek Sagar, and Sricharan Pakala attended the launch event and praised Mani Sharma’s soulful compositions.
Speaking at the event, Keeravaani said that after watching Baby, he became a fan of Sai Rajesh. He mentioned that the visuals and songs of “Chennai Love Story” give the same emotional vibe and expressed confidence that the film would emerge as a feel-good blockbuster. Keeravaani described “Vadhalane” as a haunting melody and said music lovers would not be able to forget the song anytime soon. He also emphasized that music is the soul of every love story and revealed that the film contains seven songs, which itself indicates the emotional depth of the film.
Music directors at the event showered praise on Mani Sharma’s timeless melodies and spoke about his influence on their musical journeys. Anup Rubens revealed that Mani Sharma inspired him to become a keyboard player, while Sweekar Agasthi said he even promoted the film’s first single more passionately than his own songs because of his admiration for Mani Sharma’s music.
Director Ravi Namburii shared that “Vadhalane” would remain the best song of his career and revealed that the emotional intensity of the song deeply moved the entire team during its shoot. Cinematographer Daniel Viswas stated that the emotions audiences feel while listening to the song would become ten times more impactful on the big screen.
Producer Sai Rajesh revealed that he specifically requested Mani Sharma to compose all seven songs as melodies because audiences have been missing pure melody albums from the legendary composer. He added that “Vadhalane” appears during a heartbreaking moment in the film and would emotionally haunt audiences even after they leave theatres.
Hero Kiran Abbavaram emotionally spoke about the song shoot in Pondicherry and revealed that a particular scene narrated by director Ravi Namburii brought tears to everyone on set.

With soulful melodies, emotional storytelling, and strong musical backing from Mani Sharma, “Chennai Love Story” is already creating strong expectations among music lovers and movie audiences alike.
