Deva once clarified the ‘Kandha Sashti Kavasam’ controversy

The inclusion of the hymn 'Kandha Sashti Kavasam' in the film 'Sooryan' stirred debate among viewers. Originally, there was a scene that supported the hymn's context, but it was removed prior to the film's release. Though Deva sought permission from the Soolamangalam Sisters, the lack of context caused some to misunderstand his intentions, highlighting the challenges he has encountered throughout his career as a composer.
