After 'Why This Kolaveri' from the movie '3' became a worldwide hit, 'Rowdy Baby' from another Dhanush-starrer 'Maari 2' made massive waves on social media. The song, which soon became a earworm for people all over India, quickly climbed up the fame ladder and clocked over one billion views last year, becoming the first-ever South Indian video song to achieve this milestone.
Now, the foot-tapping number has added a new feather to its cap. 'Rowdy Baby' has crossed five million likes on YouTube and is the first and fastest video from South India to pull off this feat.
Released in the year 2018, 'Maari 2' was directed by Balaji Mohan and featured actors like Dhanush, Sai Pallavi, Tovino Thomas, and Varalaxmi. The song 'Rowdy Baby' from the movie, sung by Dhee and Dhanush became an instant hit due to its catchy lyrics and Prabhu Deva's choreography and the duo executing it to their best.
