Sardaar Gabbar Singh’s Tauba Tauba Telugu Lyrics English Meaning
Ananta Sriram’s words question unequal judgments with direct statements like “one rule for them, another for these people.” The lyrics observe how people scold a woman dancing, while “Apsaras” performing similarly receive praise from gods. This highlights the perceived unfairness.
