He came, he spoke, he scored and he conquered the hearts in his first address! His conquering of hearts was evident from Yarigu Sambala Salodilla Sala Madodhudhu Thappodilla'.Dil Mange More'he sung in Kannada and made a humble speech. That is the foot tapping, soul stirring and rustic music director of Telugu films Devisriprasad. He came to Bangalore recently on his debut Kannada film 'Sangama' starring Golden star Ganesh and Vedhika for the S.V.Babu production and felt immensely happy for the welcome he received. Devi Sriprasad proving his mettle in Telugu mainly wondered whether he deserves such a warm reception. That is his humbleness.

DSP as he is popularly known spoke on the work satisfaction in his first Kannada film. When I sit to score music for any film the questions arise in me. But for scoring six songs in 'Sangama' I had no questions. Lyricist Kaviraj was perfect to my music meter thanked DSP. The respect given and urge for something new from the team of 'Sangama' gives me a kick and makes me work more. I offer very big thanks to people of Karnataka and very positive that the songs of 'Sangama' would be liked by everyone he added in his address to the media.
