The lyrical song “Tarasuki Ram” from Draupathi 2 has been unveiled as a composition built on contrast, using celebration not as ornamentation but as narrative language. Rather than functioning as a conventional festive number, the song positions itself firmly within the film’s historical and ideological framework, presenting parallel emotional worlds that quietly underline the divisions shaping its story. The lyrical serves as a tonal bridge, offering insight into the film’s larger conflicts without spelling them out.
Structured around two distinct stanzas, Tarasuki Ram moves fluidly between spectacle and conviction. The opening section, “Tarasuki Tarasuki,” captures the sultanate clan immersed in exuberant celebration. Driven by pulsating rhythm, scale-driven choreography, and dynamic movement, this portion leans into excess and momentum, presenting celebration as an assertion of authority and dominance. The energy is outward-facing and expansive, marked by collective fervour, rhythmic intensity, and a visual language that privileges scale and power.
The song then transitions into its second stanza, “Jai Rama Rama Rama Hare Ram,” unfolding during the prāṇa pratiṣṭhā celebrations. This movement features Richard Rishi’s character carrying the idol of Rama alongside others from his clan. While celebratory in spirit, the emotional register shifts decisively toward faith, unity, and shared purpose. Here, celebration becomes an act of consecration and collective resolve rather than display, grounded in belief and participation. The contrast between the two stanzas is allowed to exist without commentary, letting emotion and imagery carry the meaning.
Choreographed by Thanika Tony, Tarasuki Ram binds these opposing emotional registers through movement, ensuring continuity while preserving distinction. The choreography functions as a connective thread, allowing both worlds to coexist within the same musical frame while retaining their individual identities.
Produced by Sola Shakkaravarthi under Netaji Productions, in association with G. M Film Corporation, Draupathi 2 expands into a broader and more historically layered canvas. Set in the 14th century, the film navigates an era shaped by imperial conflict, regional resistance, and cultural upheaval, drawing from the reign of Hoysala emperor Veera Vallalar III and the legacy of the Kadavarayas of Sendhamangalam. The release of Tarasuki Ram, following the emotional response to the earlier lyrical “Nelaraaje,” further reinforces the film’s approach to music as an extension of storytelling rather than a standalone attraction.
Directed by Mohan G., the film stars Richard Rishi and Rakshana Induchoodan, who steps into the commanding role of Draupathi Devi. The ensemble cast includes Natti Natraj, Y. G. Mahendran, Nadodigal Barani, Saravana Subbiah, Vel Ramamoorthy, Siraj Johnny, Dinesh Lamba, Ganesh Gaurang, Divi, Devayani Sharma, and Arunodayan. With Ghibran Vaibodha composing the music and Philip R. Sundar handling cinematography, Draupathi 2 continues to gather momentum as a historical drama rooted in conviction, contrast, and immersive world-building.
