    Talking about the song, Anand says, "The song is a peppy number. These days, a lot of IT people take off on the weekends to simply chill out, to places like Pondicherry or Mahabalipuram. We have portrayed a similar situation in the song. The first two lines of the song go — Podhumda Saamy, Nine To Five Porattam, Kaanjupona Chedikku, Thevai Neraiya Neerottam. The focus is on youngsters who like to have fun." Amudhan confirms, "Anand sir chose me to write the song based on my tweets, which border on dry irony. He needed that to come across in the song." Ask him about the challenging part of writing a song and he says, "Writing in meter is not a problem for me since I used to write poetry and my father was a music director. The only apprehension was I did not know if I could come up with the right words. But Anand sir helped me through the entire process."


    Amudhan was involved in a similar project earlier. "I wrote the Maddy Maddy song from Minnale, but that was entirely in English. This is the first time I am attempting a full-fledged Tamil song," he reveals. Amudhan and Anand know each other since the days when Anand was an ad filmmaker and Amudhan worked as creative director. "We go back a long way and so, when he asked me to write for Anegan, I was thrilled ," says Amudhan.
