Karthik’s contemplative vocals drive ‘Badulu Tochani’ from Prabhas’ film Mr.Perfect. Lyricist Sirivennela Seetharama Sastry and composer Devi Sri Prasad frame existential doubt through melodic tension.

Karthik | Mallikharjun • From “Mr.Perfect”
Badulu Tochani Lyrics Translation – Mr.Perfect Soundtrack
Sastry poses direct questions about life’s unpredictability. Karthik asks why puzzles appear without solutions and whether turmoil erupts without warning, comparing mental chaos to an ocean of dreams.
Eppatiki Thana Guppeta VippaduHe never unclenches his fist.
Evvariki Thana Guttunu CheppaduHe doesn’t reveal his secret to anyone.
Endukila Edurainadi Podupu KathaaWhy has this puzzle appeared before him like this?
Thappukunenduku Daarini IvvaduIt doesn’t give him a way to escape.
Thappu Anenduku Kaaranam UndaduThere’s no reason to call it a mistake.
Chikkulalo Padatam Thanakem SaradaaIs he fond of getting tangled in these knots?
Badulu Thochani Prashnala Thaakidi Emitoo IlaaWhat is this sudden onslaught of unanswerable questions?
Kalalu Aagani Samudramula Madi Maarithe ElaaWhat if the mind turns into an ocean of ceaseless dreams?
Ninna Monna Neelopala Kaligindaa Enaadayinaa Kallolam IlaaHas such a turmoil ever erupted within you, yesterday or the day before?
Ee Rojemaindani Edainaa AyyindaniWondering what happened today, or if something went wrong,
Neekainaa Kaasthayinaa Anipinchindaadid you feel it even a little bit?
Eppatiki Thana Guppeta VippaduHe never unclenches his fist.
Evvariki Thana Guttunu CheppaduHe doesn’t reveal his secret to anyone.
Endukila Edurainadi Podupu KathaaWhy has this puzzle appeared before him like this?
Thappukunenduku Daarini IvvaduIt doesn’t give him a way to escape.
Thappu Anenduku Kaaranam UndaduThere’s no reason to call it a mistake.
Chikkulalo Padatam Thanakem SaradaaIs he fond of getting tangled in these knots?
Edolaa Chusthaarey Ninno VinthaluThey look at you as if you are a strange oddity.
Ninne Neeku Chooputhaarey PolchalenanthalaaThey show you a reflection of yourself that you can’t even recognize.
Munupatilaa Levanatoo Kondaru Nindhisthoo UnteIf some accuse you, saying you aren’t like you used to be,
Nijamo Kaado Spashtangaa Theledelaahow will you know clearly if it’s true or not?
Sambarapadi Ninu Choopisthoo Kondaru AbhinandisthunteIf others point at you with excitement and congratulate you,
Navvaalo Nittoorchaalo Thelisedelaahow do you know whether to smile or to sigh?
Badulu Thochani Prashnala Thaakidi Emitoo IlaaWhat is this sudden onslaught of unanswerable questions?
Kalalu Aagani Samudramula Madi Maarithe ElaaWhat if the mind turns into an ocean of ceaseless dreams?
Nee Theerey Maarindi Ninnaki NetikiYour very nature has shifted from yesterday to today.
Nee Daarey Malluthundi Kottha TheeraanikiYour path is turning toward a new shore.
Maarpe Dayinaa Vasthunte Nuvvadi Gurthinchaka MundeIf change arrives before you even recognize it,
Evarevaro Chebuthoo Unte Nammedelaahow can you believe it when strangers tell you?
Velle Maargam Mullunte Aa Sangathi GamaninchandeIf there are thorns on the path you take and you don’t notice them,
Thondarapadi Mundadugesey Veelledelaahow can you rush forward and take the next step?
Badulu Thochani Prashnala Thaakidi Emitoo IlaaWhat is this sudden onslaught of unanswerable questions?
Kalalu Aagani Samudramula Madi Maarithe ElaaWhat if the mind turns into an ocean of ceaseless dreams?
