New Delhi [India], January 12: The song “Rathuni Rathuni” from the film Karikaada was released on 10 January at 5:10 PM across Kannada, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Hindi. The multilingual launch brings together creative contributors from multiple regional film industries. Carried by rhythm and movement, the song presents a musical moment shaped by voice, beat, and visual expression.
Composed by Shashank Sheshagiri, Rathuni Rathuni represents a closely coordinated musical effort. The track has been arranged and programmed by Shashank Sheshagiri and Prabhudas, with additional rhythm programming by SAM. Live rhythm sections were performed by George Thomas (SAM), while guitar portions were contributed by Srinivas and Godfrey. A stylised rap vocal segment by Thiraiyan, along with chorus vocals by Prabhu, Chethan, Santosh, and Vihaan, adds layered texture to the composition.

Commenting on the song’s multilingual approach, composer Shashank Sheshagiri said, “While the musical structure of ‘Rathuni Rathuni’ remains consistent, each language version was approached with care to ensure the lyrics and vocals felt natural to that region. It was important that the song retained its identity while adapting seamlessly across languages.”
The visual presentation is choreographed by B Dananjaya and features Bigg Boss fame Kriti Verma as the dancer, whose performance adds a strong visual dimension to the song.
