'Satranga' from 'Animal' was initially made for some other project, reveals composer Shreyas Puranik
Music composer Shreyas Puranik, who has composed the song ‘Satranga’ from the Ranbir Kapoor-starrer ‘Animal’, has shared that the song was supposed to be a part of some other project but eventually was used in ‘Animal’.
Shreyas, who started his career 15 years ago as a singer, also shared the journey of the song and his experience working with Arijit Singh and Sandeep Reddy Vanga.
In a candid conversation on ShareChat’s Live Audio Chatroom, he said, “‘Satranga’ was made in September last year for another project but couldn’t be used there.

We were just singing the song, and it suddenly caught Sandeep’s attention”.

With Kabir Singh, Sandeep Reddy Vanga set a musical standard that few can. Forget Hindi filmmakers; imagine a director coming from down South bringing a project that would be remembered not only for its treatment but the music as well. It is an achievement I feel only Srv has achieved to date. Has he repeated the same with Animal’s songs? Let’s analyze!

The moment I got done with this track, I realized this exists because Pritam went back to listen to Kabir Singh‘s album and thought, “How would I’ve done if I were a part of it!” And tada ‘Hua Yeh Gaana’ titled Hua Main. Pritam is listed...

We first experienced the magic of Siddharth and Garima’s writing in the Sanjay Leela Bhansali directed Goliyon Ki Rasleela Ram-Leela. The duo, along with Mr. Bhansali, brilliantly transformed the story of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet into an Indian context and the result was rave reviews for the writing and the stars.
For their next project they entered the world of a love story of a warrior – Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s epic Bajirao Mastani starring Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone and Priyanka Chopra. For what is being called his magnus opus, Mr Bhansali went to Siddharth and Garima to paint beautiful pictures with their lyrics for three of the biggest songs, ‘Deewani Mastani’, ‘Pinga’ and ‘Mohe Rang Do Laal’.
I was granted the amazing privilege to interview Siddharth and Garima about RamLeela and it was a joy to write the piece. This week, I once again was honored with the...
