Shruti Haasan has recorded the first Telugu song for SS Rajamouli’s upcoming film GlobeTrotter, composed by Oscar-winning music director MM Keeravaani. The collaboration brings together two prominent figures in Indian cinema—Shruti Haasan, known for her versatility as an actor and singer, and Keeravaani, who earned global recognition for his work on RRR. The GlobeTrotter Anthem marks the beginning of the film’s musical campaign and has already garnered over one million views online.
During the recording session, Shruti Haasan experienced a deeply emotional moment when Keeravaani played her father Kamal Haasan’s iconic song Thenpandi Cheemayile from Nayakan. The surprise added a personal connection to what was already a major professional opportunity.

At first, Shruti believed it to be a routine prayer before work, only to realize that the tune was from one of her father’s most celebrated films. In her caption, she wrote, “That moment was super special. It was a pleasure to sing for Keeravaani sir’s musical. What a powerful track… let it bang, GlobeTrotter.”
Shruti Haasan expressed gratitude to Keeravaani and the entire team for making the session memorable, calling it one of her most heartfelt musical experiences. The behind-the-scenes clip shows her smiling as she listens to the melody before starting her main track.
This personal moment between Shruti Haasan and Keeravaani drew attention from fans, many of whom noted how her emotional connection to music mirrors her father’s artistic depth.
Shruti Haasan and Kaala Bhairava collaborate on ‘GlobeTrotter Anthem’
The GlobeTrotter Anthem, released on YouTube under T-Series, features vocals by Shruti Haasan and Kaala Bhairava. The track combines tribal rhythms with orchestral instrumentation, designed to capture the adventurous tone of SS Rajamouli’s latest project. The lyrics are written by Chaitanya Prasad, while Kaala Bhairava oversaw the song’s arrangement and sound design.
The production credits include Siddharth S and Abin Paul for mixing and mastering. According to the film’s team, the song sets the emotional foundation for GlobeTrotter, balancing simplicity and power. Fans have praised Shruti Haasan’s voice for its energy and texture, noting that her performance adds both strength and warmth—qualities not often found together in mainstream Telugu tracks.
The GlobeTrotter Anthem serves as the film’s first musical release, building anticipation for the larger soundtrack and storyline. The song’s success within hours of release underlines Shruti Haasan’s growing influence as a playback singer in Indian cinema.

Shruti Haasan’s growing musical footprint
Beyond acting, Shruti Haasan continues to establish her reputation as a multifaceted artist. Her ability to switch between film roles and studio recordings has made her one of the few performers in Indian cinema to maintain strong dual careers in music and film.
The GlobeTrotter Anthem adds another milestone to her musical portfolio, connecting her personal and professional worlds in a moment that fans have described as both nostalgic and inspiring.
As GlobeTrotter moves toward its November reveal, Shruti Haasan’s contribution to the project reflects her continued evolution as a performer who brings emotional authenticity to every creative collaboration.
