Aditya RK bas sung the track and Anirudh Ravichander has composed it. Within a day of its release, the song has fetched 4.1 million views on YouTube.

‘Don’ directed by debutant Cibi Chakaravarthi is a fun entertainer set in the backdrop of a campus. Sivakarthikeyan will be seen playing a college student’s role for the first time in his career. His ‘Doctor’ co-star Priyanka Arul Mohan is the female lead.

‘Don’ also stars SJ Suryah, Samuthirakani, Sivaangi, Bala Saravanan, Kaali Venkat and RJ Vijay. Sivakarthikeyan’s frequent collaborator Anirudh is composing music for this film. Sivakarthikeyan Productions and Lyca Productions are jointly producing it.

Though the makers of ‘Don’ had recently announced March 25 as the release date, it is likely to be postponed to avoid a direct clash with the biggie, ‘RRR’.
