My Take
Anirudh Ravichander strikes me as one of the genuine pulse-setters of South Indian cinema. Breaking through in his early twenties with a song that owned the streets, he turned out to be no flash in the pan, racking up Filmfare South, SIIMA, Edison and Vijay awards. What impresses me most is how he honors Tamil musical tradition while constantly retuning it to a younger generation's heartbeat. So much of the euphoria in modern Indian film owes its rhythm to him. When a track makes your body move before your brain catches up, that's the mark of a real composer, and he delivers it again and again.
