My Take
Ravi Basrur is, to me, the rare composer whose scores feel less like accompaniment and more like a second pulse. His work on K.G.F: Chapter 1 and 2, Salaar and Marco gave those films their relentless, thunderous spine, and the fact that it came out of the Kannada industry rather than a global capital makes the reach even more striking. What I respect most is the refusal to stay in one lane: composer, lyricist, director all at once. That is not mere versatility but obsession, an artist determined to build his entire sonic world from the ground up. I am rooting for him.
Overview
Ravi Basrur is an Indian music composer, lyricist and director who mostly works in the Kannada film industry. He is known for his collaborations with director Prashanth Neel, with whom he debuted in Ugramm. His most famous works as a composer are K.G.F: Chapter 1, K.G.F: Chapter 2, Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire and Marco. He has also directed the films Gargar Mandala and Girmit.
