Currently, the biggest film in India is Jawan which is killing the box office not only in this country but overseas. A lot of South Indian stars including the female lead in the movie Nayanthara made her Bollywood debut with this project. It is also the first Hindi project of Anirudh Ravichander, the music composer of Jawan. The film’s album is currently trending worldwide with ‘Chaleya’, the promiscuous love track, and ‘Not Ramaiya Vastavaiya’, the ultimate dance number with the film’s background music. If you are already impressed by Ravichander’s compositions, wait till you discover that the young superstar has other works equally magnificent in the south Indian industry. So, let’s move on to the records of Anirudh’s career and hopefully by the end of this read, you will have an extended playlist and a new-found appreciation for this 32-year-old musician.
Jawan magic! An Anirudh musical
One of the reasons why Jawan is performing so well in the worldwide box office is definitely the captivating soundscore of the movie. Anirudh’s magic clearly showed when people started dancing in the theatre on ‘Zinda Banda’. The palpable energy of the track sets the stage for the incoming storm.
He then carried the album with ‘Chaleya’ which takes the audience on a rollercoaster ride of romance and love. With the high and low notes shining lights of both Arijit Singh and Shilpa Rao’s voices, Anirudh creates a perfect background ballad for your romantic evenings.
Anirudh’s magic once again reflected through the romantic and dance items, ‘Faratta’ and ‘Not Ramaiya Vastavaiya’ which successfully amped up the audiences and the storyline. Then he finishes the album with the most soul-touching ‘AararaariRaaro’, a heartwarming inflexion that has minimal yet effective musical arrangements, an Anirudh signature.
Since it is impossible to ignore the fantastic music of Jawan, here are some of the other magnificent works of Anirudh Ravichander.
‘Why this Kolaveri Di?’ – 3
The talented artist made his debut in the south industry in 2012 with Dhanush’s movie ‘3’. This movie starred Dhanush and was the directorial debut project of his cousin Aishwarya R. Dhanush. While he was still completing his graduation, Anirudh had given background scores for several short films made by Aishwarya which convinced her to hire him for this project. Even if you do not follow South Indian films, you must have heard the big hit ‘Why this Kolaveri Di?’. Well, the track was from this movie, composed by the one and only Anirudh Ravichander and sung by Dhanush.
‘Kaavaalaa’ – Jailer
Another track that is currently taking social media by storm is ‘Kaavaalaa‘ from the latest Rajinikanth hit, ‘Jailer’. The catchy beats and enthusiastic composition of the track are a big hit on Facebook and Instagram reels where Tamannah dancing with the hook step is going viral. The song was sung by Shilpa Rao, Arunraja Kamaraj, and Anirudh Ravichander who composed the track as well. The song became an instant hit across multiple languages like Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada, and Hindi.
‘PathalaPathala’ – Vikram
Now that we are getting into it, one thing is becoming clearer than ever, there is no comparison when it comes to composing dance numbers, Anirudh is an undefeated king. ‘PathalaPathala’ from the latest Kamal Hasan hit movie ‘Vikram’ is one track that is played on every occasion in South India. The fresh track added so much to the movie and after receiving millions of views on the internet, is one of those tracks that keeps the movie still relevant.
‘Vaathi Coming’ – Master

‘Thenmozhi’ – Thiruchitrambalam
Anirudh Ravichander does not only deliver massy, upbeat tracks but is equally capable of setting your mood with romantic love ballads. If ‘Chaleya’ from Jawan is not enough proof for you, ‘Thenmozhi’ from the Dhanush stared ‘Thiruchitrambalam’ will surely make you fall in love with Ravichander’s composition. This track is a typical Anirudh rendition of love, which is romantic and soulful at the same time. The song also does a great job of making the audience feel swoon-worthy and completely in love with the characters.
‘Needa Padhadhani’ – Jersey
This is one of the most crucial tracks of the movie ‘Jersey’ which is composed by Ravichander and sung by Darshan Raval. Released in 2019, the song comes in a very important part of the movie which helps the audience see the actor in a difficult time of his life, reflecting on the motivation that he gets to keep going.
‘Naa Ready’ – Leo
In case you haven’t had enough already, we have another social media favorite for you. ‘Naa Ready’ is a track from LEO, starring Thalapathy Vijay that presents the actor in his full glory. The composition of the track with upbeat musicality and energetic beats will surely make you want to get up and show off those moves on the dance floor.
‘Marana Mass’ – Petta
One thing that Anirudh Ravicander is quite capable of and probably is the master of is how to present his heroes in a heroic light with his music compositions. The same Anirudh magic displays on screen when ‘Marana Mass’ plays which marks the bombastic entry of Rajnikanth. The song is sung by Anirudh Ravichander, and S.P. Balasubrahmanyam, which displays the magic correctly on screen.
All of Ravichander’s albums have a unique combination of tracks that contribute so much to the movie and the characters, displaying his talent and charisma. After the success of Jawan, the world cannot truly wait for another Anirudh musical!
