Tagaru is a special movie for Kannada cinema patrons and for myriad fans. For starters, the film allowed a rather unique creative collaboration between director Suri and the Century Star Shiva Rajkumar to materialize, and the film delivered on the promise of being a bonafide entertainer. On the other hand, it also lent a platform to two talented actors like Dhananjaya and Vasishta N. Simha so that they could flex their muscles. The duo played Daali and Chitte respectively, two characters that defined their careers and put them on the map, and their scenes with Shivanna ended up having a mesmeric effect on all the fans. So much so that fans still recall them with a resounding encore.

And it would seem that the wish has finally come true, albeit with a small catch. The upcoming film Bairagee, which stars both Shiva Rajkumar and Dhananjaya in prominent roles, will also feature Vasishta N. Simha to make this a reunion of sorts, but the latter will be joining the team purely as a playback singer. Yes, Vasishta has lent his unique voice to a stirring track in Bairagee and fans would certainly hope that their second gathering on-screen is as electrifying as it was back in 2018. Bairagee releases in cinema halls on July 1.

Speaking of the specific song in the film, music composer J. Anoop Seelin shares, "We needed a bassy voice for this special song in Bairagee and it was Shivanna who suggested we get Vasishta to sing. The song comes at a crucial juncture in the film and has a lot of emotional baggage so Vasishta's unique voice became the perfect fit. We had a great session with him". Singing alongside Vasishta N. Simha is the Ananya Bhat who has recently delivered a massive hit in the form of Mehbooba from K.G.F: Chapter 2.

Bairagee has been directed by Vijay Milton who makes his Kannada debut with the film. Pruthvi Ambaar, Anjali, Yasha Shivakumar, and Saikumar too star in the film to make this an exciting ensemble venture.
