"Orasaadha" was the debut single for Vivek and Mervin after working as music engineer and programmer for Anirudh Ravichander and their foray in films with Vadacurry, Pugazh, Dora and Gulaebaghavali. In an interview with Srinivasa Ramanujam of The Hindu, the duo stated that the song is about a youngster's first love.
