Mumbai, Jan 4: “Why this kolaveri di?” The much talked about track that captured a million hearts all around the world, has failed to make any money for the singer himself. Dhanush, has apparently reaped no monetary benefit from the track even though it went viral all over through the internet.
It is learnt that the rights for ‘Kolaveri Di’ was sold to Sony Music for a very tiny amount. Not just that, as we all are aware of the various other versions of the track, the man behind the success of the song, cannot do anything about it.
Speaking about the same, Dhanush said, “I can't release any version of Kolaveri without Sony's approval. And I'll have to share every version of the song with them. So essentially I'll get paid only for my singing. Like the Tamil version, the Hindi version of Kolaveri is with Sony Music. There's nothing I can do about it.”
Dhanush admitted that he had no clue that the song would be such a huge hit and that is why he sold the rights to Sony at such a low price. “But it's okay. I don't regret it. I am content with what I've got from this song,” said Dhanush. Meanwhile, without losing heart, Dhanush is planning to open his very own music company.
