Composition

This film marks Anirudh's third collaboration with Vijay after Kaththi (2014) and Master (2021), and with Nelson after Kolamaavu Kokila (2018) and Doctor (2021). [5] [6] Anirudh composed the tracks during mid-July 2021. [7]

[8] Anirudh said to lyricist Ku Karthik that, the team wanted a celebratory and fun number for the film, and he got to know that he was the songwriter for one of the tracks in the film. [9] This marked Vijay's 35th song, [10] and Karthik's 50th film. [11]

After Karthik penned its lyrics, the tune was composed within 30 minutes and Vijay recorded the vocals for the song in the morning, before the song shoot.

[13] Karthik said that director Nelson simply wanted an enjoyable track and he completed the track within 30 minutes. "We were keen on doing a fun song with elements of what’s trending currently. Unlike people who heard songs on TVs and radios, today’s generation watches them on the internet and we were keen on catering to that crowd", he added. [14]

The title of the song is a reference to the song "Jalilo Jimkana" from Amara Deepam (1956). [15] [16] Karthik said "We stuck to simple words and decided that 'Jolly O Gymkhana' as the hook-word would sound good with similar-sounding words like 'raasamma' and 'ramamma'". [14] Amalraj said the song is more in the Spanish style, and he used nylon guitars and Goan violin for it". [17]

[36] Thinkal Menon on OTTPlay wrote "The slow-paced, but trippy song has Vijay and Pooja Hegde impress with their chemistry and flawless dance moves once again, leaving fans into a tizzy. Anirudh's composition stands out, and Vijay, who has lent voice for the song, surprises with his singing skill again. The vibrant outfits of the actors in the video, stunning cinematography and simple lyrics by Ku Karthik are other impressive elements in the song. [37] Murtuza Iqbal from BollywoodLife.com stated it as "a feel-good dance number with some upbeat music that will surely cheer you up. Visually, it’s a colourful track, and Vijay and Pooja’s breezy dance moves will surely grab your attention." [38] The Times of India wrote "Thalapathy Vijay and Pooja Hegde set the dance floor on fire with the song." [39] Only Kollywood rated the song 3/5 and wrote "This time, Anirudh hangs onto a sequel of Ullalaa, bringing in the holidaying mood with a baila-like beat. The awesomeness of the song completely belongs to Vijay, who takes it by the horns and delivers a cool and happy rendition. The song has some nice horns and jumps, which are its best bet. However, it does not achieve greatness due to the familiarity that it has within." [40]
