Hey hey hey hey hey...
Once the money arrived,
My tastes totally changed, hey hey!
A car, a penthouse, beach right next to it,
Straight facts!
Big brother's statue on Anna Salai,
A statue!
They want a speech from me at the UN assembly,
No thanks!
I am already rich, rich!
Wealth reached us and became rich, rich!
No thanks!
I am already rich, rich!
Wealth reached us and became rich, rich... ah!
From now on, it's my way, my way,
Countless companies to my name,
Not like the past, times have changed,
I'm going to do things in a whole new way!
The Goddess of luck, she touched me,
Tearing through the roof, pouring it all down!
The whole town talks only about us,
Got to ward off the evil eye daily, I'm at that stage!
Even if they bring stacks of millions
And hand them over,
Only if he is in the mood,
Does he ever do the work!
Even if I got here taking shortcuts,
I never took a single day off for myself!
Too many people in this country,
Endless wealth with just the top one percent...
If you do the math, I belong to that crowd too!
Even so, it's not enough, I want more and more!
Once the money arrived, my tastes changed,
Totally changed!
A car, a penthouse, beach right next to it,
A beach!
Big brother's statue on Anna Salai,
A statue!
They want a speech from me at the UN assembly!
I am already rich, rich!
Wealth reached us and became rich, rich!
I am already rich, rich!
Wealth reached us and became rich... rich!
How to get rich in thirty days—
I'll take an online course on it!
In a Warner Bros movie, Nolan
Is calling me for a major role!
I'll take a big bank loan and run away,
After all, there are loopholes in our laws!
I'll easily pay Messi some cash
And tell him, "Score those goals!"
Just a twenty billion loss, hey,
That's pocket change, hey!
I'll go to Vegas for a vacation,
Alsatians around the villa for security,
Look all around me, I'm a sensation!
My way, from now on it's my way,
My way!
Countless companies to my name,
F F F
Not like the past, times have changed,
Changed, changed, changed!
I'm going to do things in a whole new way... oh!
I am already rich, rich!
Wealth reached us and became rich, rich!
Note that!
I am already rich, rich!
Wealth reached us and became rich, rich!
The whole country is basic, basic
Sir alone is classic, classic
The whole country is basic, basic
Sir alone is classic, classic

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

The song 'Rich Rich' (also known as 'Naadu Poora Basic') from Vikram's 'Mahaan' is a satirical, high-energy hip-hop anthem celebrating lavish wealth, ambition, and unabashed materialism. The lyrics detail a protagonist who has risen to immense riches, adopting a luxurious lifestyle filled with cars, beachside mansions, international travel, and grand influence. Beyond simple flex culture, the song critiques economic disparity with lines referencing the top 1% holding most of the country's wealth, corporate loopholes, and modern hustle culture. Through witty modern Tamil slang and playful English flexes, the song captures the euphoria and unapologetic greed that accompanies rapid financial ascension.
