The song ‘Arabic Kuthu’ from Thalapathy Vijay's ‘Beast’ was released as a Valentines Day treat for fans. It went viral instantly and has phenomenal 140,196,029 views as of this writing. The song was composed by Anirudh and he sang it along with Jonita Gandhi with Sivakarthikeyan providing the lyrics.
The fun video of Anirudh, Sivakarthikeyan and director Nelson promoting 'Arabic Kuthu' itself is huge hit. While fans got Vijay talking on the cellphone to Nelson and Anirudh about the song in the video there is no clue as to how he reacted to the lyrics.
Sivakarthikeyan who participated in an awards show was asked the question and he replied that the song was shot a long time back and there was no feedback about it. He even thought that Vijay might have not been impressed by what he wrote. However after seeing the promo video the top hero called him and not only congratulated him but praised him for his writing in Arabic as well.
Siva then told the cheering crowd that he informed Vijay that Anirudh put in half of the lyrics and he just filled in the gaps. Vijay has also informed Anirudh that he liked 'Arabic Kuthu' very much and predicted that it would become a huge hit.
Sivakarthikeyan's next film 'Don' costarring Priyanka Arul Mohan is releasing in May this year. He is currently shooting for 'SK20' a Telugu/Tamil bilingual directed by Anudeep of 'Jathi Rathnalu' fame.
