ANKIT TIWARI SACHIN JIGAR SNEHA KHANWALKAR While Ashiqui 2 became a ground- breaking success Ankit Tiwari emerged as the ultimate fresh talent; alongwith the talented Mithoon he created an aura that transpired throughout the entire album and rocked the chartbusters for months. The best part is, this refreshing talent actually competed against the veterans like Jeet Ganguly at the Filmfare awards. Tiwari has delivered Baaghi, Beiimaan Love, Tum Bin 2 and Rocky Handsome in 2016. His range is versatile and varied in many ways and he keeps bagging awards with his skills. Remember the prodigal Jatin Lalit or Vishal Shekar; Sachin Jigar are rightly succeeding the big names in the industry in creating a niche for themselves in the market. Started off as the musical arrangers for Pritam, Sachin Jigar is propelling fast with a career sprinkled with the right amount of varieties. From Go Goa Gone to Happy Ending, this musical pair has tapped in right the peppy as well as the rosy numbers both alike. And they certainly taught us how to Shake your Bootiya. Shot up largely from the alternative scene, Sneha could unleash herself largely because of Gangs of Wasseypur. Her soundscape is astonishingly variegated yet largely popular mainly because she grounds herself to sounds with a resoundingly ethnic sounding mother board. Besides, she occasionally resorts to a very original sounding textured voice, which she used in songs like Kaala Re and many more. Sneha is still working with élan on films like Khoobsurat, Sigh is Bling and Detective Byomkesh Bakshi. SUMIT SUVARNA Today's most promising composers of the avant-garde Bollywood Music has been highly transcendental when it comes to staying in vogue for a ridiculously prolonged period of use. Yet, this is not true of many great composers of Bollywood including the Burmans and of course the likes of Rahman. Today music is hip again as a market but it is extremely difficult also at the same time to thrive in longer, with the cut throat competition posed by the influx of rap artists and musicians of an alternative genre. Yet there are young, and promising composers of Bollywood who are making the most even out of their limited scopes. 34 The Score Magazine www.thescoremagazine.com KRSNA NUCLEYA Tanu Weds Manu fame Krsna hails from a Siliguri and has a training from National institute of design in film communication and today holds the RD Burman award for new music talent.
