SS Rajamouli started his note by mentioning that in the list of all his other fans, this recognition was something he deserved. It was long overdue. He wrote, "Like many of your fans feel, this recognition was long over due."

He also wrote, "But, as you say, the universe has a strange way of rewarding one's efforts." It means that SS Rajamouli felt really proud and happy for his elder brother-like figure MM Keeravani winning the Padma Shri Award for the RRR song Naatu Naatu and the universe has its own ways of rewarding a person's sheer hardwork and efforts.  Rajamouli concluded his note by writing, "If I can talk back to universe, I would say Konchem gap ivvamma. okati poorthigaa enjoy chesaaka inkoti ivvu."

In the following tweet, hailing MM Keeravani, SS Rajamouli mentioned, "MY PEDDANNA. MM KEERAVAANI. RECIPIENT OF PADMA SHRI AWARD. PROUD!!!."

"Like AR Rehman said, Keeravani garu, is highly underrated. Strange when he thought it is time to retire, that is when exactly his time started that is receiving the appreciation for his work. In fact, he got more renowned with Annamayya itself. It is just a fact that this appreciation is late," said a fan.
