Support from Thaman
Rishi, the budding music director, took to X on Monday to share the struggles faced by newcomers in the industry. His post conveyed feelings of disappointment, stating, “Debut music director kastalu ento telusa (Do you know the difficulties of a debut music director?) – No remuneration or very low remuneration. – Audio labels not ready to buy music rights. – Low trust. – Tantrums by technicdigihunt. Ippudu idhe phase lo unna (I am currently in that phase).”

Hope you help that guy.”
