Kannada music composer B Ajaneesh Loknath achieved national acclaim for his stunning background music in the pan-Indian blockbuster "Kantara." He is now gaining popularity in the Telugu film industry as well.
Ajaneesh was roped in for "Virupaksha" earlier this year, and the Sai Dharam Tej starrer was a huge success.
The film's success demonstrated that Ajaneesh's background score can elevate certain types of films. It's no surprise that he's now in high demand in Telugu.
His score for the recent thriller "Mangalavaram" was also well received. The producers of Nithiin's "Thammudu" are now considering hiring him. Thaman was initially considered, but Ajaneesh is now likely to take his place.
Music directors from other industries, such as Anirudh Ravichander and Hesham Abdul Wahab, have already become popular in Telugu. Ajaneesh has now joined their ranks.
