The songs 'Srivalli', 'Saami Saami', and the item song 'Oo Antava Oo Oo Antava' featuring Samantha Ruth Prabhu, contributed the most towards this achievement given their ability to reach the masses on a global scale. The songs are still being tuned in regularly for their groovy beats and catchy lyrics. The songs have now turned out to be one of the biggest party anthems of the year. The soundtrack album of the film was composed by Devi Sri Prasad. The soundtrack features five tracks which are all written by Chandrabose.
The film which held this record earlier was another film starring Allu Arjun called Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo. The film went on to bag over 2 billion views. It is nice to see Allu Arjun breaking his own records while creating more at the same time.
