Music is the essence of Kalavaramaye madilo

Now that the audio is released and (I am sure) everyone is enjoying the music, let me share a few interesting titbits’ associated with the making of the music for Kalavaramaye Madilo.
My first choice of Music director for this film was Iliya Rajaa garu, second choice was Keeravani garu. Both did not fit into the budget of the film. The other name for consideration was Mr. Radhakrishna.
While we were discussing about the names, Mr. Mohan the producer of the film proposed the name of Mr. Sharreth. I asked him, is he the same person we see on ‘Asianet’ channel as a judge. He said yes.
Without batting an eyelid I said he is our music director (why? refer to my earlier article). Mr. Mohan immediately called him and I spoke to him… Mr. Sharreth was our music director.
In a couple of days Mr. Sharreth came to Hyderabad. I told him the story, He liked it very much. I wanted 8 songs in the film. He was excited, but there was a catch, it was, he has to compose the second song in the film with mistakes. I also told him, sir I need a song people can connect to, a song which sounds good to a normal audience. A song which can become very popular, yet it should have mistakes… He said, with mistakes, but why? I explained the need of it. He laughed at me but agreed, because he understood the need, for the story.
Next was who will write our lyrics.. (more…)
