Sai Pallavi fans in shock on 'Rowdy Baby' makers' celebratory post for 1 billion milestone
Sai Pallavi fans were in shock as 'Rowdy Baby' makers shared a celebratory post for the song's 1 billion milestone. They expressed their displeasure on Twitter.
Dhanush-Sai Pallavi’s song Rowdy Baby has been a rage on YouTube ever since its release in 2018. The video had already set multiple records and the latest milestone for the track was 1-billion milestone. However, as the makers recently announced a 'common display picture' to mark the occasion, Sai Pallavi fans were upset about it being all about her co-star.
Sai Pallavi fans upset over Rowdy Baby makers CDP
As is a norm in the South film industry, moments of importance like a star’s birthday is often marked by a CDP or common display picture, where all fans join in and keep the same image. With Rowdy Baby crossing such a milestone, the makers decide to celebrate with a CDP as well.
In the CDP, one could see Dhanush as the makers shared his look in a black suit from the song playing a graphical guitar.
While there was no sight of Sai Pallavi anywhere, the music composer Yuvan Shankar Raja received a mention on the top of the post.
Netizens expressed their surprise over Sai Pallavi’s ‘snub’ on the celebratory post. One quipped that they should ‘check their eyesight’ and one compared it to the project manager ‘solely taking credit for the whole project.’ A user was convinced that Sai Pallavi's dance was mainly responsible for the success of the song.
Some believed that even Prabhudeva, who had choreographed the song, should have also been a part of the CDP.

Meanwhile, Rowdy Baby, which was launched on October 25, 2018 reportedly stands at no 15 in the most-watched Indian videos on YouTube. It is one of the few films that made it to the list.
The song had featured in the Tamil film Maari 2, which was directed by Balaji Mohan. The movie, which was a sequel to the 2015 hit Maari, also starred Varalaxmi Sarathkumar and Vidya Pradeep in important roles.
