The slow burn number, which has been set to tune by
Mickey J Meyer
, has been rendered by
. Lyrics for the song have been penned by Raghav.
Actor Nani, who took to his social media timelines to release the number wrote, "This song and the vibe. Thank you Ani. Fully trippin. A @MickeyJMeyer surprise. #Thanu"
It may be recalled that Nani had on Thursday said that the makers didn't wish to reveal the visuals for 'Thanu' and therefore they had come out with a specially shot video song for this number.
What is interesting about 'Thanu' is that while the lyrics of the song give the impression that the slow burn western rock number is romantic in nature, the visuals that go with it are in stark contrast, with Nani going about his policing work.
Nani plays the role of a tough cop called
Sarkaar in the film.
A trailer of the film that was released recently by the makers begins with Nani explaining to his superiors about how he thinks criminals should be handled.
"Criminals belong in a 10-feet lock up or deep inside a six-feet hole. No criminal should be free to walk around until they've faced real behavioural correction. You don't have to be personally affected to feel that way. Just being a police officer is enough," he says in a grim tone, giving an indication of what is to come.
The trailer then has a woman who is scared stiff for her nine-month-old baby that has been abducted.

"What will they do to her? He is 5'9 or 5'10''. He has a few strands of white hair on his beard," she is heard explaining to the police officer about the man who has abducted her child.

There is another shot of a shopkeeper explaining about a soldier who fearlessly walks into a ring to defend those at risk.
"Only he knows how many nights and days he has worked tirelessly to save one life," the shopkeeper explains. The final portion which gives a better understanding of Arjun (Nani)'s character revolves around a brief conversation that Arjun has with his lady love.
When she asks him whether she should call him Arjun or Sarkaar, he replies saying, "When I am in the midst of people, call me Arjun, when I am in the midst of criminals, I am Sarkaar."
The film, which is the third instalment from the HIT universe, is to hit screens worldwide on May 1 this year.

Shaalien Malhotra on why he has been away acting: I have diversified into a lot more things apart from acting
Shaalien Malhotra has been keeping busy—both in front of the camera and behind the scenes. Known for his television work, the actor has now branched out into voice work and production, juggling roles that keep him connected to the industry while also letting him grow beyond acting. He tells us, "I have diversified into a lot more things apart from acting, which actually do help me in acting also. So I give a lot of voicing. I do a lot of voicing work for a lot of South films for Tamil and Telugu to be dubbed in Hindi. Acting happens to me when it happens, when there are good shows coming, when there are good roles, when they think I fit. I make ads. So I keep myself busy." His current excitement lies in producing—something that offers a different set of challenges. 'I'm very excited about the projects that I'm doing as a producer, yeah. It's a different ballgame. It's a different space to be in, to be pitching, to be going in for meetings, learning a few things of how people react to your approach, because you're new. And then making ads is always a good high, because it's a project that you have to make in a particular time span and deliver it. So yeah, that work keeps me very much interested. On the acting forefront, I would still want Arjun to come back, because a lot of people have been asking for it. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Memperdagangkan CFD Emas dengan salah satu spread terendah? IC Markets Mendaftar Undo And there's been a lot of rage about it. But if it doesn't, I'm sure that something good is coming my way by the end of next month, hopefully. I think that's the timeline.' He recently attended The Giant Wheel Festival and shares, "It's a vibe. That is, it's basically a part of space that brings people together. It's like a celebration where all age groups are coming." When asked about his childhood, he recalled what he misses most. 'I think when you ask this to any grown-up who's crossed their childhood, it will always be the carefree life. It will always be the no-stress zones. It will always be hanging out with friends in the evening. It will be playing hide-and-seek when the light goes off in the colonies of Delhi. So playing cricket day and night. But I think the sweetest childhood memory, if I recall, is going to be with family, celebrating my birthday with mom and dad. Watching various movies with them. Because those times are very precious. And when they go, these are the only memories that stay with you. So I think anything related to my mom, or my dad, or my brother, since my childhood, I think every memory and each memory is very special.'

Hyderabad: In a fresh blow to the Telugu film industry, two newly released films—HIT: The Third Case and #Single— fell victim to piracy within hours of their theatrical debut, prompting the Telugu Film Chamber of Commerce (TFCC) to escalate the matter to Hyderabad cyber crimes police. The TFCC, through its anti-video piracy cell, alleged that high-definition pirated versions of the films were uploaded on notorious torrent sites, raising serious concerns about security lapses in the digital cinema distribution chain. The TFCC lodged a formal complaint with the cyber crimes police station in this regard. The complaint was filed by Yarra Manindra Babu, project head of TFCC's anti-video piracy cell.

The producers had embedded advanced forensic watermarking in all digital cinema package copies to trace such leaks. Similarly, a camcorded version of #Single was found online shortly after its release, appearing on and However, the exact source of this leak remains undetermined. The TFCC emphasised the severe economic impact of piracy on the Telugu film industry, citing estimated losses of ₹3,700 crore in 2024. "Piracy not only undermines producers' investments but also endangers the livelihoods of thousands of families working in the industry," said Manindra Babu. The police registered a case under various provisions, including sections 66C and 66E of the IT Act, section 318(4) read with 3(5) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, and sections 63 and 65 of the Copyright Act.
