'Thalapathy' Vijay's double birthday treat has been lapped up by fans everywhere and the response to the first look of his upcoming film, Leo, including the first single 'Naa Ready' has been nothing short of astounding. The 'Naa Ready' song penned by lyricist Vishnu Edavan, especially is the talk of the town now, with praises pouring in for the powerful lyrics highlighting the mass appeal of Vijay. In that light, Vishnu Edavan sat down with Galatta for an exclusive interview to talk about 'Naa Ready' composed by 'Rockstar' Anirudh Ravichander, while also revealing for the first time Vijay's reaction after reading the lyrics. 

Speaking about Vijay's reaction to the 'Naa Ready' lyrics, Vishnu Edavan said, "After I finished writing the song, Lokesh Kanagaraj shared the lyrics with Vijay. I didn't meet him initially. After he shared the lyrics, Vijay liked the lyrics. The next time when I met him, he himself called me up and told me that the lyrics are superb." Revealing that Vijay liked how he started the song with the words 'Naa Ready', Vishnu said the actor appreciated him for writing lyrics like, 'Annan naa erangi varava...' and 'Kondadi koluthanum di...'. The popular songwriter added, "He (Vijay) praised me saying I'm doing a good job in a cute manner. To us, it's big, but for him, it's a casual thing."

'Naa Ready' in Leo has raced its way to the top of the charts crossing more than 20 million views on YouTube alone, with the song performing exceptionally well on streaming platforms as well. The song sung by Vijay and Anirudh with rap by Asal Kolaar features the Tamil superstar setting the dance floor on fire while being joined by Mansoor Ali Khan, who is playing a key role in the film being directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj under producer S. S. Lalit Kumar's 7 Screen Studio banner.
