As Kalyaana Vayasu from Lady Superstar Nayanthara’s Kolamaavu Kokila has clocked 5 million views, the highest number for a track from a women-centric film, trolls on the web found a track sounding similar to the Anirudh Ravichander composition.
However, Anirudh has shut down trolls who accused him of copying the song by taking to Twitter yesterday to clarify.

Bankrolled by Lyca Productions, the film directed by debutant Nelson features Nayanthara in the titular role of a drug peddler. Saranya Ponvannan and Yogi Babu, who has received excellent responses for his performance in Kalyaana Vayasu, play important roles in the project.
