SACHIN-JIGAR HAVE MADE A NAME FOR THEMSELVES AS COMPOSERS WHO CAN CATER TO EVERY GENRE. TANZIM PARDIWALLA TRIES TO GAUGE THEIR SECRET
TANZIM PARDIWALLA
MUSIC MAVENS

Sachin Sanghvi and Jigar Saraiya arrived on the scene as independent composers in 2006 with Golmaal: Fun Unlimited. They shot to prominence with Shor In The City (2010), directed by Raj and DK. Saibo, from the album, in particular, achieved cult status. They were on board for Raj and DK's Go Goa Gone, Bollywood's first zombie comedy, they were on board for Bhediya, the first creature horror-comedy and they were (no points for guessing) on board for Farzi, Shahid Kapoor's debut OTT series. It's like any story with an uncharted soundscape demands Sachin-Jigar's specific skill sets. Between the sweet melody of Saibo and the bold Thumkeshwari, they've come a long way. The result is a discography full of exciting songs that have 'instant classic' potential.

YOU HAVE BEEN WORKING ON GENRE-BENDING FILMS FOR A WHILE NOW…

JIGAR: We always keep saying that, as musicians, we don’t want to get stuck in our own sound. Sometimes musicians tend to establish their own specific sound, which can be a good thing. If a band has a sound they want to retain, it’s a great way to put a stamp on their music. Whoever listens to their song will say it’s their song. But Sachin and I go about this differently. We want to keep evolving. We don’t want to give ourselves an identity. We want to continuously reinvent ourselves and always begin as first-timers. We treat every project like our first and start with, “What is the most modern thing we can do today?” Maybe that’s why Go Goa Gone still sounds fresh. Hopefully, Apna bana le (Bhediya) will sound fresh even after five years.

WHAT WERE THE CUES GIVEN TO YOU FOR BHEDIYA?
