Music director Sricharan Pakala’s recent hit Major (2022), marked his debut in Bollywood. He is now all geared up for his work for Nikhil Siddharth’s forthcoming espionage thriller Spy.
In relation to cinematographer-editor-director Garry BH he said, “I have done a lot of action and spy thrillers. Garry BH being the editor of the projects helped us maintain a sync.”
While Sricharan Pakala’s Guntur Talkies (2016) was a hit, Adivi Sesh’s Kshanam (2016) gave him much-needed glory and there was no looking back. He grabbed many serious films since then.
On the ever-changing nature of the music scene he said, “Yes, on a rapid pace, especially the sound. The music that I had done for Kshanam was new then but it wouldn’t get the same response now.”
He further added: “Around that, a lot of things keep changing. There has been a lot of amalgamation of genres and patterns of making music and sound differently.”
When asked about composing music for OTT platforms, he remarked: “For OTT, the approach is different. For theatre, I might go heavy or light based on the subject. But for OTT, it is the reverse.”
“I don’t watch many films but I listen to a lot of music. There is a theme for this franchise. We are planning to create a brand and impact for this project”.
