Anupam Roy on composing for Anushka Sharma's Pari

Anupam Roy is one busy man! The National Award winning music composer, who picked up the 64th National Film Award for Best Lyrics for Praktan's chartbuster Tumi Jaake Bhalobasho (2016), has been roped in to compose the music of the Anushka Sharma starrer 'Pari'. Anupam started his career in 2010 in Bengali films with Autograph. He steadily made his way into every Bengali's heart with soulful melodious and lyrics that everyone learnt by heart. In 2015, he made his Bollywood debut composing for Piku and later went on to stun everyone with Pink and Dear Maya. Bollywood had taken notice of a talented composer and there was no looking back. This year, the multi-talented composer is working on Pari, starring Anushka Sharma and Parambrata Chatterjee in lead. The film marks the debut of director Prosit Roy. When we got in touch with Anupam, he shared about the experience. "This is my fifth Bollywood project and I am enjoying every bit of it. The genre is a little different. Expect haunting, eerie music in Pari," he said.




Speaking about juggling work in Tollywood and Bollywood, Anupam said, "The scope of work is completely different in the two industries. When I am composing for a Bollywood movie, I primarily focus on the music. Whereas, in Tollywood, the pressure is a lot more, with both music and lyrics to be worked on."

Anupam also threw light on how he bagged Pari that is co-produced by Anushka Sharma herself. "There was minimal effort in bagging the project. It happened organically. The director of the film, Prosit Roy, is fond of my work. The producers too liked my work in Piku and Coke Studio so the decision was unanimous. I hope the audiences like the music."
