Kandaa Vara Sollunga, the first single from Karnan had released and got an astounded reception. An emotional Santosh Narayanan took to Twitter to pen - I bow down to all of you who loved and supported #KandaaVaraSollunga. This is a major victory for so many folk artists who have to be celebrated. Thank you all so much. Here is a click from my first discussion with @mari_selvaraj about Kandaa Vara Sollunga. #Karnan DrumDrum (sic).
Now, Dhanush has tweeted in response, saying - And we know there is much more to come. Thank you for identifying such deserving talents of our soil and soul and displaying them to the world. God bless you (sic).
