Guntur Kaaram’s Dum Masala Telugu Lyrics English Translation
The character declares physical dominance through lines about strikes that erase memory. Ramajogayya Sastry contrasts this with imagery of transforming sorrow into festivals. Resistance against carrying others’ burdens defines the lyrics.
