Star music director Devi Sri Prasad has been struggling to come back to form while his counterpart Thaman is delivering chartbusters at will.
DSP's last decent album was Bharat Ane Nenu. He was a part of hit films like F2 and Sarileru Neekevvaru in recent times, but his music for those films was not up to the mark.
Although DSP is out of form, one has to agree that he has been working for uninspiring scripts of late.
A music director can reinvent himself when he gets the scope to work for story or theme based movies and working on masala movies isn't helping DSP much.
Buzz has it that DSP has given some good numbers for Panja Vaishnav Tej's debut film Uppena.
It is directed by Sukumar's protégé Buchi Babu Sana and DSP has always given his best for the films coming from Sukumar and his team.
If the buzz is to be believed, DSP can bounce back with Uppena that is releasing on April 2.
Although Koratala Siva has replaced him for #Chiru152, Sukumar has retained him for #AA20 despite some resistance from Allu Arjun.
