The Top 20 Music directors in india

Hey you are only considering the bollywood, but south indian music is far better especially the tamil music industry is the best in india don't go after Bollywood it is a garbage

To me he is No: 1 to No: 10..... rest all comes after that..... Just like BigB is known as One Man Industry, RDB is one Man Music industry in India. He was not just a music director, He was a Music Factory where anything can be made and every creation is masterpiece.

Undoubtedly RD is the best music director India has ever seen. what the present music directors are doing now RD had done it in 1970’s.

RD Burman is unsurpassable. He is a true genius of melody. He is to Bollywood what Mozart is to Western Classical music. No one comes near him.

RD Burman has entered the hall of the immortals.

RD No1. Forget the rest

R.D.Burman is the best. No comparison please. Jaikishan himself used to say to his musicians that RDBurman will remain unsurpassed. Ilayaraja is only poular in 2-3 southern states. I have heard his music, but never understood the craze.

R.D.Burman is the greatest musician the world has ever seen.

No body in this world like R D Burman...a Great Teacher , Experimenter , Musical Scientist.... He is above all....Just listen Music of ... Hum kisise kum nahi, Yaadon ki baarat, Padosan, Pyaar ka mousam, Carvan , Tisari manzil & many more.... Thanks.... Kumar,Ahmedabad

RDB SHOULD BE ABOVE ARR

Versatile music composer, the most talented music director in playback singing for hindi cinema as well as bengali cinema. Experimentation in music with western tunes with indian folk and classical tunes.

RD Burman is easily better than AR. REvolutiosing mucic in the 60's is a far greater achievment than doing well now with easily acceible technologies and an interconnected world. When RD entered films, he had Shankar jaikishan, Op Nayyar, Naushad & not to mention his PA'a giant shadow as his competition. AR had Nadeem shraven, Anu mallik as his rivals. RD introduced a lot a western instruments and synthesized indian classical with western music.. something that AR does now with his touch (ofcource)

RD Burman is definitely the best ever from Bollywood. I'll place him ahead of everyone,including AR Rahman,ahead of everyone(except Tagore,of course)... He was the pioneer. He was single handedly responsible for revolutionising the sound of Bollywood. His brand of music was totally fresh,brilliantly fluid and powerfully moving. Without RD Burman,Bolly music might have passed off as alright,but never would it have managed to get so close to our hearts! And generations of future composers have extracted careers in music from copying him. And careful assessment will reveal that that includes even Rahman.

What!!! You mean he is just a OK music director but not one of best.He is a legend.He is so great that a music award in filmfare is named as RD Burman award.He is the only music director in whose name a filmfare award is given.You should know that modern music directors make remixes of his songs.You call those music directors as great who copy from RD Burman's songs & make remixes of his song.But the original music maker has no value.What is this?By copying in exam also a student can secure higher mark.But we can't him as a tallented student.

Maestro and no 1

HE IS THE BEST EVERY ONE ELSE SUCKS, BESIDES S.D BURMAN

best ever............nobody came close to his music.

Bring Nadeem Shravan back or we will loose Flavour of Indian Melody.

Those who are criticizing Nadeem Shravan here....2 words for you FUCK OFF

No one can beat Nadeem Shravan ever in the history of bollywood. They give the new life to Hindi music.If anyone has any doubt then he should listen his unbeatable songs.

bring back nadeem shravan the best composer,our industry needs this time.

THE BEST MUSIC COMPOSER IN THE WORLD

Nadeem shravan all time best

Nadeem Shravan, No.1 without a doubt. Other composers come very far behind them. Annu malik wud b second aftr them. Nadeem Shravan's heavenly soothing soulful melody z uncomparable... No wonder u listen their songs till date in towns n villages still where u find real India. Even in cities, in shops, taxies, auto's evrywher u hear mostly NS songs.. Their melody vl exist till eternity.

Nadeem-Shravan is the one & only melody king. ~ Asha-NS fan ~

Nadeem-Shravan.....Obviously No.1

No 1 is the one and only Rahul Dev Burman ( R.D. Burman ) whose songs are the most listened.discussed,analysed and remixed ,19 years after his death and his popularity among young,old and serious listeners are increasing by geometric progression. He is the real phenomenon. Nadeem Shravan had both informed that they were inspired by R.D. Burman's scores particularly "Mere Jeevan Sathi " to become composers. He has influenced all the recent composers in a big way - the composers themselves proudly and rightly say so. He brought in many genres,rhythms,styles and instruments in Bollywood music and enriched it. His experiments ,tals,background scores and versatility is the ultimate. He is the NO1

Ar rehman is the best..we cant even compare rehmans usic with any others music...

Nadeem-Shravan.....is the best music director forever

Shankar-Jaikishan should be at no.1......... they were inspiration to laxmipyare, rdb etc . Even nadeemshravan are great fan of them...........

Notwithstanding hereinwith to any of the rating given to the Music Directors, i give No:1 Ranking to ShankarJaikishan

Nadeem Shravan Music Never staples.today, much of his music was sounding in the world.Nadeem role in the murder, and if not, they are still No 1. no doubt

who is having more no. of national awards for music( in his debute movie itself, & also who won the ascar award and make every indian proud ARR the best ever.

Shut up, the songs of Junoon 1992 will beat all Indian film industry songs. Let alone other melodius Nadeem Sharavan albums. So get your facts right. and listen to Nadeem Shravan songs first then comment.

even a comman man can give good music by lifting the songs from others what's so great about it, if we inspired the song it would be great, in that case AR.Rehman is too good than any other music director

nadeem shravan is the best, just check out the music- popular songs like- thumse milne ki thammanna (sajan) , kisi roz thumse (pardes, premi aashik (phool aur kaante) , aye ho meri (raja hindusthani) , humko sirf thumsr (barsaath) , dil ne yeh kaha (dhadkan) , hum yaar hain (haan maine bhi pyar kiya) , mein dhuniya (dil kya ka kasoor) and lot more

After all copies and Inspiration still Nadeem Shravans songs are most played by hindi/urdu speaking people in India,Pakistan,bangladesh Middle east etc etc...

A.R.Rahman is a global music composer, don't compare Him with any one, He is handling keyboard right from age 4.. his blood is full of music, His fame is not only in Hindi & Tamil, He entered into world to contributes his Music... you wanna to know rahman more just listen roja, bombay theme music...

nadeem shravan is best music director in india because nowadays also in many places i saw of listning his songs like "raja hindustani","saajan","ashiqui","dilwale","kasoor"....etcand even if we listen these songs many times also we can't get bored. and even his songs are like mind relief medicine

What you are saying is just from own opinion What i am saying is the real facts. Yesterday i saw one man in jeddah playing saajan songs. When i visited bombay people were palying saathi and dilwale songs . Again in riyadh i have seen people were playing kasoor songs . So dont say blindly this music director is good or that music director is good. Do u know no one listens to songs of rangeela these days why becoz those songs can be listened when it was releases after 16 years no one is listening to rangeela songs ,this is just an example this is happining to all music directors. With the exection of nadeem shravan where.still today NSs songs are played as is the songs are just releases . So observe first then comment

no........they are good composer no doubt, bt cant be at no 1, Listen to songs of RD Burman, LP, A R. Rahman, Ajay Atul......... RD Burman should be at no 1 place......his all songs are unbeatable

Observe yourself all. Wherever Hindi songs are being played more than 70% songs are composed by nadeem shravan .I request all first observe and then comment

No one outside india know about this nadeem shravan,but if we say about indian music, they will surely say d name A.R. A.R is d icon of indian music

What??hit rate of Nadeem Shravan is less than Rehman?? Have you heard each & every song of Nadeem Shravan?First listen each & every songs of Nadeem Shravan & then post such comments.I am listening his songs for last 2 decades.But I have rarely found any flop songs.

I dont understand how you can compare Nadeem with A.R.Rehman, Tell me something where is nadeem now. He couldnt stand in this new generation and left out ... Check out the Hit rate iof nadeem and Ar. A.R wins ... it.

those who belives nadeem is the top should listen to the songs of ilayaraja.then u will change ur belief.

All those who think Nadeem Shravan is the best need to know the difference between quality and quantity. Producing a lot of music is not the same as producing good quality music. Their music ( and not "his" music, Nadeem and Shravan are two different persons you fools) are all the same in every song. If you know what is innovation then you will know that Nadeem-Shravan are far behind AR Rehman, Ilyaraja and MM Kreem

hey every one, you all first find the meaning of music then you won't fight. every set of people have set of taste if you like Nadeem Shravan then hear his musics for only mind relaxation dont search points to argue from his music. when one music gives refreshment to mind then definetly accept he is an best music director.dont lock music in ratiolism.

before rating music directors u have to hear the music of other music directors atleast 10 best song of their composition type "povae sempoovae" in you tube and hear the first 1 min of song...im sure u will be mesmerised....take another song "paruvamae"...just hear the instrumentation and chord changes.....if u have real music knowledge u can understand wat is that music the above songs are composed in early and mid of 80s by first ever symphony composer from asia..and his song stands in bbc world rating and hear that song "rakamaa kayia thattu"..and "sundari"...from talapathy..mani direction...then give the rating

Many talked about Nadeem Shravan as if they knew them. Lets make it clear that they are two individuals. They had a very gud run, especially in melodies. Yet there is Madan Mohan, Noushad and the all time great RDB. And from south Illayaraja, ARR and Keeravani.

What!!! AR Rehman is better than Nadeem Shravan?no way......... Do you have real idea of music?AR Rehman is also a copy cat.If you have doubt then check this on youtube.

Tamil industry have good music directors.But it doesn't mean that Hindi industry doesn't have good music directors.Listen all songs of Nadeem Shravan & then say who is best.South Indian people hardly understand Hindi for which they always right against Hindi.A long list of Nadeem Shravan's song are given above.

Your choice is really good as they are ever best

who the hell is nadeem shravan... a r rahman is god of indian music industry

Yes the Best Musicians in Inda are from the Tamil Nadu State. In such case Ilayaraja and A.R. Rahman are considered as the best Music Directors in India.

plagiarism is not restricted to Nadeem Shravan. Almost all composer did copying of tunes and inspiration.Ultimately what matters is soothing melodies. Which Nadeem shravan by far and most superior to Ar Rahman and other composers. This is real fact buddy observe in India and other hindi/urdu speaking part of the world.

Plagiarism Nadeem-Shravan have been accused of committing plagiarism on several occasions, some of their popular Hindi film songs have been directly lifted from Pakistani singers, itwofs has a list of 49 songs lifted by the duo.

sorry to all people who speak hindi.i am lawrance from london.i have heard that the best musicians in india are mostly from tamil if i am right its madras(chennai) state in india.example-A.R.RAHMAN.but dont try to compare with hollywood.

I am not saying that Hindi music directors are best.I am saying that Nadeem Sharavan are best music director in India.I also listen south Indian, oriya,bengali & bhojpuri songs.If we see the current music then I like south Indian songs more than Hindi songs.But from 90's to nearly 2005 Nadeem Shravan were unbeatable.If you have doubt then listen their songs.A long list of films of Nadeem Sharavan is given above.In India Nadeem Shravan's song are played more than any music director.

Still you think that Music Composers for the Hindi Film Industry is the best because you dont listen to any other language songs from Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, Kannada, Asamese, Bengali, Oriya etc. It is not. If you have to understant about Indian Music I have only the words of Mahatma Gandhi "Indias soul lies in the villages". Like that you have to listen many songs from all the different languages. So I am not ready to admit Nadeem Shravan as the best Music Director and more over they do not know the ABCD of Indian Classical Music called "Carnatic Music"

If you consider hindi songs as the best songs in India, I feel Pity on you. You have to hear songs from other Indian languages too. Nadeem Shravan has copied song "Pathirakkili" from Malayalam movie "Kizhakkan Pathrose" which is given music by S.P Venketesh and which is released in 1992 for one of his movie directed by Priyadarshan. The name of the movie is not sure to me. You please hear the above song from Google or Youtube. then you will understand which song is that. Music Composer should always have a consistency. In such case no doubt Maestro Ilayaraja is the great music composer India ever had. Only thing is that Hindi Music Industry wont allow him to work with them.

Nadeem Shravan was the best, is the best & will remain the best.No one can beat him.

Who is Nadeem Shravan?I don't know him. If you will say these above two lines then you have zero knowledge about music.If Indian music is a school & you will say the 1st two lines then you are the weekest student of that school.

Of course he is the best.From 90s to nearly about 2005 he was unbeatable & now also he is producing beautiful compositions.Thanks friend for posting his film list.Now after viewing this list no one can argue that he is not the best music director in India.

Someone have told that he don't know Nadeem Shravan.For him I am giving a list of film in which Nadeem Shravan has worked as music director.The films are Raaz, Dil hai tumhara,Yeh dil ashiquna,Tumse achcha kaun hai,Hum tumhare hai sanam,Jeena sirf mere liye,Dil ka rishta,Andaz,Bewafa, Hungama,Qayamat, Do knot disturb, Gumnaam,Mere jivan sathi,Dosti,Haan maine bhi pyar kiya hai, Kasoor,Andolan, Ashiqui,Saathi,Saajan, Phool aur kaante, Dil hai ke manta nehin,Sadak,Dil ka kya kasoor,Deewana,Panaah,Rang,Dil tera aashiq,Dilwale,Andolan,Barsaat,Raja,Saajan chale sasural,Raja hindustani,Jung,Judai,Pardes,Maharaja,Jeet,Sirf tum,Aa ab laut chalen,Salaami,Agni sakshi,Dhadkan,Ek rishta etc. Now say who is the best music director of India?Now also if you will say that he is not a good music director then either you are a mad or you don't have any knowledge about music.Search him on google.

Many people told that AR Rehman is the best music director in India as he has won a lot of award.But winning award doesn't mean best music director as for winning award you have to give good music in just one film in a year.It doesn't matter whether you have given good music or not in rest of the films of the year.AR Rehman's music is just like that.He is not consistent in producing hit music like Anu Malik & Nadeem Shravan.No dout Nadeem Shravan is best music director in India.He has not won much award as compared to Rehman bust he has produced hit music with consistency.If you have real knowledge about music then definitely you would say that Nadeem Shravan is the best music director in India

If u don't have any idea about Nadeen shravan u do not have any idea in Indian Music industry

who s this nadeem shravan in chenai v r not hearing his songs n any bus,cafe,street & everywhere.kanna!!! world s very big.AR s far big.he s King of Music,no music no melody understand

Every where in the world Nadeem Shravan Songs are played more than any music director's songs.You go to any Shop any bus any cab and pan shop any cafe any street any place every where every where this is why they are the best ever. better than any music composer in india. This is a real fact

King of melody no doubt.....they should be after A r rahman...

A R Rahman Sir....Greatest Of All Time...No Comparison....A R Rahman is In a league of his own

i like u music god..you was inspiration

Undoubtedly the best so far and will be further,....... thanks to ARR for such a good music

common he is just a time pass music director if compared to madan mohan roshan sankar jaikishen etc

He should be in the first place,no doubt at all how DSP came in to this,mokka music director..same music,same beat,same singers..

Name itself is enough!

music genius

greatest musician in world

the king of musician

There is no comparision with A.R. Rehman. As for Nadeem Shravan, there is lot to be said.

I wish you and the all the best you are no:1

Rehman might be the good music director, but not a great music director. Just go to youtube and type a r rahman copycat, you'll find true colors of his music, almost all of his best songs are inspired my other music legends. In my opinion ilayaraja is great..

The King Of Music

background instruments used in his songs are unguessable

In One Word He Is The Maestro & He Changed The Path Of Indian Music & Showed The Greatness Of Indian Music To The World

Only Rehman...he changes the indian music in a great way...fresh tunes...he intruduced many singers&musicians to the industry...he is the best

He is a legend.. His simplicity keeps him in a very gud position al the time...

If Beethoven hear the master works of Rehman He would accept Him as his Music Teacher

A.R.RAHMAN, no doubt He is the present Mozart of music in the world...............................

if any one asks me"which is the most essential thing to support your life?i will suddenly burst out with the answer that " my breath" but rahman is different that "once he was asked by the question by a interviewer,whether he will enter in the film industry to act.but rahman replied that"music is my breath and i can't breath none other than that".so my view is a.r.rahman IS THE UNIVERSE 'S BEST MUSIC COMPOSER AND SINGER.

A R Rahman is the best music director, that India has ever seen. The fusion and perfection in his music can never be compared with any body else. The traditional and repeatitive music scored by IlayaRaja is nothing other than waste infront of Rahman

hey guys A R was the key boardist of music legend ILAYARAJA

ELLA PUGAZUM "ARR" KEY....

a.r rehman is really a good music director.he develop himself as a best music director.

AR.R IS GOOD. HE GAVE SO MANY HITS FOR "THALA" AJITH.[KANDUKONDEN KANDUKONDEN,VARALARU,PAVITHRA]

we are proud about ar rahman for he born at india. he was going unlimit hights , he create path for became indian composers.

he is a storm

a r r is no 1 composer in india nobody can reach him. a r rrrrrrrrrrrrooooooooooockkkzzzzzz

AR s best...not currently...if u need to belive just hear his songs in every format....mainly tamil songs..of course hindi and english songs..if he s not best..then how can he win oscar for india....stil now he s very simple....some AR songs wont attract u at d first time..wen u hear it atleast 3 times..u can understand legends music......its not over..there r so many awards waiting for AR..

He brought new style of music in music history.He doesn't follow anybody's music.He is unique.He is also the good human being.Even he touch the high still he is praising every best music without any jelousy.From the first film Roja he has not turned back yet and he need not that so.Amazing talent Great creativity Great person definitly He is NO 1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

Really great minded person....Thanks to A.R for giving external music to the world....

proud to be a tamil

HE IS ONE OF THE BEST MUSIC DIRECTOR IN WORLD

Currently AR Rehman is best music director in India.But you can't call him as the best of all time.RD Burman,SD Burman,Laxmikant Pyarelal,Nadeem Shravan,Anand Milind,Jatin Lalit are the top evergreen music directors of India.Making just one musical hit film per year & then getting award for that can't make him number one.

he is the no.1 music director and singer .we are proud of a.r.rahman.

Rd burman is no 1.

He gives extraordinary music in a film per year for which he gets award.But music in his rest films are worst.So for this reason he can't be counted as best music director.He doesn't have consistency like Nadeem Shravan,Anu Malik,Shankar Ehshan Loy.These three haven't got so much award like rehman but they have produced more hit songs with consistency as compared to Rehman and their songs give more pleasure to listener.In consistency Rehman is not even comparable to these three.

a.r is the king of music not only in india

what so great about a.r.r mixes all types of music its worst sometimes they can be extraordinary but sometimes he has a worst compositions i give only 3 marks out of ten

Yes, AR is genius now , but ILLAYARAAJA is the strong root for that genius, he is great b'cos RAAJA was already a maestro (ISAIGNANI) when the technology was not developed (80's & 90's)...

He is the genius.i am proud to be that iam in his period.

oscar wins a.r.rehman.....

dei sappi! dont compare him with iliyaraja la...iliaraja can go nowhere higher already...he only knws limited..he is only at india..and he can stay with his dapanggs! arr has most the musics in his tips and also international culture musics aswel..

no body can say anything wrong about the a.r because rahman is the top most he is the so different director in the world abhishek kaniojia

its dare to compare anybody with AR.iam proud to be a Tamilan

ar rahman is the best music director in the world after micheal jackson......

he is easily the best in the country......!!

the one & only legend who is not compare with anybody else,a.r.rahman is always evergreen,HE is the everest of music

iam akhila from a.p. iam very big fan of a.r.rahman. he is the greatest music director. i just love his songs

dont talk only in india peeps...world wide!!...i still cant find any competative for ar rahman..

AR Rahman is the music director which india never & ever seen before & after$$$$$$

no body can reach AR.................east or wesr AR is best

the best........the best.............

yes u r correct. ar rahman is not at all comparable with ilayaraja. because ar rahman is far lower comparing with ilayaraja. ilayaraj songs are evergreen.

AR IS NOT COMPARABLE WIT ILAYARAJA AND YUVAN BECOZ HE IS A OSCAR WINNER

A.R Rehman is the best music director in india. I heard Yemaya chesave songs those are awesome.

A. R sir is brilliant and produces fresh tunes and have a kind heart......Jai ho

no one in india can compete with A.R.RAHMAN He is the No.1

I am proud of A.R.. The only indian got the oscar for music... I am proud to be an indian(Tamilan) because of A.R..

DEVI never copies from others..he alwazz RCKS,,,,,,

I am from north India.But I listen south Indian songs also & 80 % of my favourite south Indian songs are of Devi Sri Prasad.

nice music director.....

he is the"YOUTH ICON"."KING OF REMIX" in south.he is an extra ordinary composer.only person after MJ who can give such stage performane

He is one of finest music director in India.Generally he gives music in south Indian songs.I am from North India & also I don't understand telugu, tamil & other south Indian languages.But I like his songs so much.His songs are famous all over India.Mainly he has made Telugu songs popular all over India.Songs of his movies like Arya,Arya 2, Bunny,Mass,Shankar dada zindabad, Aata,Bhadra,King etc are my favourite songs & also these are famous all over India.His songs like ringa ringa from Arya 2,mass from mass, aakatesthe from shankar dada zindabad,bunny bunny & maro maro goli maro from bunny, you rock my world, feel my love, nuvvunte & thakdinitom from Arya was the biggest hit all over India.Drummers play ringa ringa & mass so much in marraiges.So clearly he is one of best music director in India.I will suggest the producers of bollywood to take him as music director.He will rock in Hindi music industry.

he is the "KING OF REMIX". he is only music director in ap can give such type of stage performance

devi the king of music in andhra he is the music director who made audio launching an event the one and only rocking music icon in ap

super

compared to others, he has very less copies songs 1 or 2...

Who said he was a copier.. He was the one &only great musicdirctor of southindia after rahaman&ilayaraja.. Devi rokzz...

Since when did Rabindranath Tagore become a music director? He was a composer, but i don't think the term music director applies to him.

His name should not be included here ,,,he is a genious and god gifted. He is a class of his own which is unparallel and beyond comparision. I sometimes wonder how a man can compose so many songs during his lifetime. It is not possible for a human being, he is super human. Pranam to him.

Rabindranath Tagore is the pride of India who is well known all over the world.

There is so much of romance and love in Yuvan's music. What is unique in his music is the different kind of beats used by him.

But he is not good choosing albums. he best albums is pudupettai,paruthiveeran,mounam pesiyathe, kathal konden,mankatha,billa 1,2,pattiyal, thulluvatho ilamai,chennai 28 1,2, ram,nantha...etc.

he is d god father of music

He is a innovator in music

Legend in the making

He is a great composer and trend setter. Hope he will go places soon

Being a music lover, I listen to MJ, Akon, Calvin Harris,Shakira, Adele, Ellie Goulding, Himesh, Jeet Ganguly, Shankar Ehsan Loy, Yuvan shankar raja, AR Rahman, Santosh Narayan, Anirudh, Teejay, Vidya Vox....but when I am sad, I listen to only one 'Ilayaraja' There is a sould in his music. I cried many times by liistening to his BGM. but I have not cried for any other's music.

The best music composer ever in India is Ilayaraja, by a mile. Rahman pales in comparison.

The greatest composer in India

Ilayaraja has composed for 1000 films, 5000 songs and very good BGM all with pure use of instruments and avoiding modern day technology

There are many music directors in India. But Ilayaraja is the only Indian Music Composer who is versatile in all areas of music - composing, conducting and orchestrating. There can be no parallel to him in the current generation whatsoever awards one may have won. We have to be proud of him rather than posting silly comments comparing him with others and arguing without knowing music. Besides he is the first Asian to compose a full length Symphony for the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. He deserves the highest place in Indian Music. Please do not for heaven sake compare this genius with other unworthy people who are good at marketing their work globally. Bach, Beethoven and Mozart never marketed their works. It has reached us even after centuries. The same will be applicable to Ilayaraja's music. Other music directors will definitely have to stand the test of time.

There are three elements of Ilayaraja's (Raja to His fans) music, the first is the folk music of the Tamils, such as the work songs and march songs. The second is Carnatic music and the third European classical music. His non-film albums like How To Name It and Nothing But Wind are a class apart. In cinema, a good music composer is not necessarily a good music director. Ilayaraja's comprehension of cinema is evident in his background scores, which add a new dimension to it. He pays closer attention to this aspect as few have done before. Ilayaraja has shown that just as imaginative lighting could enhance the visuals and their cinematic quality, so can background music. This can be pointed out as his defining influence. One film in which this is evident is Balu Mahendra's "Veedu." The film had no songs. His music is as natural as a bird on the wings, a river in full flow, or the soothing southerly breeze. One has to understand the infinity of expressions in his background scores. Alas, there are very few... Balaji Prasad, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India

Above all I rate Ilayaraja as the best music composer, he has a unique journer all his songs are unique.. you can't find anything like that in the world.. his compositions are complete with accurate accompaniment. AR RD I respect but their compositions are plagiarized - Prakash P

In Todays Fast Food World Most of the south indians r getting peacefull sleep only because of ilayaraja"s heart touching Music, He not only a music composer but also a very good psychatrist who is giving relief from depressed mmod, For me he is the one & only best composer in this world in this century. s.jothi basu.

Ilaiya raaja legend Music composser... No one can beat him ... .

GOD DONT NEEDS RANKINGS.RAJA SIR TOO

The greatest composer this country has ever seen n will ever see.True heir of mozart,beethoven,bach etc.

He was the only composer greatest ever................................ The 1st of all......................... i don't like this rating

Tamilan

A Music Director's talent is judged by the Background score...... BACKGROUND MUSIC=ILAYARAJA Sir.. So Raja Sir is the best for ever

“Maestro" Ilayaraja is one of the greatest music directors from India. All his songs on 80's are masterpiece. He might not have composed many Hindi songs that do not make any less than legend. Guys listen to his songs from films like 16 Vayathinile, Mouna raagam, Jhonny, Thalapathi, Mella Thiranthathe Kathave, Sagalakala Vallavan, Muthal Mariyathai, Sindhu Bhairavi, Guna, Nayagan, Thevar Magan and list keeps on going... truly deserved much more recognition for his works..Also I won’t agree with comparing Maestro with AR. Both are legend in their own ways.

while saying that A r Rehaman the best music director then The Maestro ilayaraja know that A R rehaman worked more than 7 years under ilayaraja's orchestra

Please do not compare Ilayaraja and ARR. Both belong to different generations all together and produced music that was in demand during their days. IR made a unique blend of western classical and indian folk music whereas AR introduced the concept of electronic music. Just for your info I would also like to add that IR is a gold medalist from Trinity university London in calssical guitar.

He is No.1 in my view, may be North Indian people have less knowledge about ilayaraja.

ILAYARAJA = MUSIC WE ARE BLESSED TO HAVE BORN TO LISTEN TO HIS MUSIC

He can be called as ''ISAIraja'' .. :)

I expected his name first in this list.......

u know some thing ilayaraja music has not participated in Oscars race...for getting Oscars u have to do music in their production...there is a foreign category an they select one film from 155 country which is over all best direction..AR also admit this point in a felicitation function...so dont say raja won oscar awards...for sample hear the bgm of "johnny" and "nayagan"..........

never came accross this site....hmm..iliyaraja vs ar rahman...well i agree both are maestros...but then again, it is because of rahman that we are now listening electronic music and also modern times music in indian music industry....and also because of him...hollywood is now turning towards indian music..and its begun recognisation world wide...he change the whole industry...he was the first to introduce western to indian....kizhaku cheemayileh songs has the best village theme this time...swades, duet.,roja,taal,dilse,kadhalan,muthu,ada,VTV, india anthem vande mataram,love birds,bombay,jodi,jane tu ya jane na,rythm and hudrends more master piece compositions which can never fade, and iliyaraja is only ever green india..bur ARR songs are worldwide and demanded by all genres and all cultures around the globe

Maestro Ilayaraja God of Music

As I am a north Indian so I have not heard songs of Ilayaraja.But many people have told that he should be number 1.So definitely he has something special.So I am interested know him.I heard his hindi songs which are not so impressive.But I think his south Indian songs are impressive. I want to listen his songs.So please tell me some best songs of Ilayaraja.

considered to be the greatest depending upon other musician. He should be at number one.

No doubt he is the Great Music Director in India even though he is not my favourite Music Director

HE IS THE BEST MUSIC COMPOSER IN INDIA,HE IS FOUR TIME NATIONAL AWARD WINNER & INTERNATIONAL AWARDS.SIMPLY HE IS THE BEST.

He is the music genius...hear his song...its very beautiful...a well know musician in the world

I heared,hear and ll hear his music ...........Monster of the music

he is d god father of music

your life is waste if you don't get a chance to listen atleast one song of illayaraja. you will feel taste of gulab jamun if you listen the song of illayaraja .he is the maestro, legend of music.

Ilayaraja is the GOD of music.

The ONE & ONLY maestros MAESTRO illayaraja is a LEGEND... b'cos even a wild & cruel human being makes a being of human.... Makes U Shine I n Character

He is the Maestro and master 4 AR

HE WAS ONE OF GURUS OF ARR AND STILL...

He is one of the finest music composition in the world..

hi i am edwin . I am proud to be ilayaraja fan. I like to say that there is no one in the world has the quality to be compared with the legend.......... FOR ME MUSIC = ILAYARAJA

may be more metals in the world but we like gold the most but the costliest metal is platinum arr gold ilayaraja the maestro is platinum

he is a fantastic music director in india

God of music

IR is a only and first person who composed symphony

ilayaraja is a best music directer and composer in india

he is really a god of music. No one can stand in front of ilayaraja.

any body can compose music of others,but no one can compose music of ilayaraja. he is the god of music he would be the no.1.

God of Music

he is the legend

whenever i heard the name Ilayaraja ,i am not feel this is a name.I feel this is one of the best music name...

List 2 to 8 really bogus. LP will always be either no 1 or in top three.

When Top Banners/Directors during the 3 decade tenure of Laxmi Pyare demanded music from them, no one can question their populariy. Yes, post 1990 music deteriorated, but undoubtedly they always to be rated in Top 10 list by any standards

Music composers over 3 Decades. competed with all top music directors during their tenure and still remained popular. their music is melodius. No doubt.

LP are the best of all time

undoubtedly laxmi- pyare were the most profilic ,consistent music director of all time they ve competed all there contempreries like tiger from shanker jaikishen to R D burman and from Bappi Lahiri to nadeem Shravan they always had an egde over ...and poved themselves till laxmikant left the world otherwise i can assure they still would ve been giving tough compitietion to the current lot shanker ehsaan loy or himesh reshamiya or the great Ar rahman

they have won 7 filmfare awards.They ruled the the late 60's, The whole of 70's & 80's. Top arch rivals to RD Burman.

I REALLY LOVE THE MUSIC OF L P BCOZ THEY ARE MELODIOUS

If there was a composer who made genuine and innocent tunes that was dada.He knew the spirit of the music.According to naushad saheb there were many maestros to start and promote indian film music,but it was burman who completed this subject.When Burman was at top of his music in 70s most of old and his fellow composers were alive,but could not even touch him.He promoted kishore,asha,geeta dutt specially under his supervision and made them greats.Most of composers of his time made mockery of kishore as singer,but after years they had no other choice to call him and put colours in their compositions.,There is no comparison in film composition if we match Burman with any composer in any era.Burman had all the qualities what a composer needs that even his own son Rahul did not posses.

He was the genuine composer who gave versatile music in cinema.....baap of all modern indian music directors

They should be ranked number one because they started they carrier having no god father or filmy back ground to support them. Their talent and hardwork make them number one.

No. 1. No dispute

The greatest of the greatest composers to have graced the world of music. Leave aside the later generations, their peers and contemporaries were huge fans and drew immense inspiration from them. The well they have dug will fetch waters for a lifetime of generations to come. They are no more, but they have carved their names in letters of gold in the hearts of trillions of music lovers all across the globe. Long live Shankar Jaikishan.

kindly listen to their songs and you will definitely you will become fan

sj the top most music directors of Bollywood even today their songs used for adds in tv example mud mud na dek mud mudke hum jab honge 60 saal ke ye nargise mastana and many

from 1958 film fare awards for singers were introduced .from sj music md rafi got 3 times and mukesh got 3 times mannadey got 1time and Kishore got 1 time . that is snigers got maximum awards from sj from no other else

sj first md got Padma sree award in 1968 rest got after 1968 had they lived they would have got Padma bushan and dadasaheb palke award

sj most versatile md from classical to western

if 100 top songs are selected 40 to50 songs will be shanker jaikishan songs

sj s' first movie was barsat every song of that movie is popular as on today no md has given such music in first movie expect lp in parsmani

my adice to younger generation is to listen to sj songs and I am sure they put sj no 1 position

lp's favourite music directors are shanker jaikishan

they were no 1 during 50's 60'sand early 70; they are deserve for dada sahib palke award

illairaja once said had jaikishan would have not passed away sj would have ruled over lp and rd

as on date adds in tv channels use sj tunes they should be placed no 1 position

sj were highest paid md 25 percent of movie budget goes to sj financers used to finance the producers only when sj were md of that movie

SJ are far ahead to rd,ka,SD and all.No one is even shadow of them.lp is little bit closer.

Who are this R D Burman, Nadeem shravan, A r rehman & others They all Were, are & will remain SIPAHI only & Shankar Jaikishan is the Emperor of Music & No.1

Shanker Jaikishan's duo was the father of modern film music not only in India but in the whole subcontinent. They brought a revolution in film music in terms of melody,tune, rhythm and orchestration.They were masters of classical and modern music. I strongly emphasize to those true music lovers who have yet not listened to their music, to listen to their music.Then they will definitely rank them No.1.Kalyanji Anandji, Laxmikant Pyarelal, R D Burman, Rajesh Roshan, Ravindra Jain, Nadeem Shravan, Anu Malik etc., all of them seems greatly influenced by SJ' work because whatever they have produced, which got admiration, it is only due to following the SJ's work. In other words, all these music composers have not done some new but to work within SJ's already set film music norms or framework.

EAST or WEST sj is the best...............

sj should be on they were really gifted.

Witout question SJ are number one! Their songs are fresh even today. And they were so prolific.

If there is number one it has to be SJ. No rdb no rehmaan. reason sj did not depend on media, 60 years on people still talk and humtheir songs from awara across the world. They are and will be no 1 for ever

Yes, they were magical pair who inspired generations of music directors.

I think all time best pair

salil is a very good composer but his hindi compositions are not very easy.... so didnt get much popularity.

salil chowdhury at number 29. isnt it ridiculous? bogus list. should be within 5

salil choudhary should among the top ten this rating is done by a man with no music sense where is devarajan and raveendran masters in this list eh

His songs are very interesting to listen but difficult to sing. That is the variety of his composition.

the best melody maker till date

The simplicity in his tunes is worth a million dollars. undoubtedly the best if one considers both bengali and hindi

Rajesh Roshan's talent has been under estimated. Unlike other colleagues he is a quiet soul and does not indulge in self promotion.

He Is Such A Great Composer - One Of My Fav Tunes Krishna Krishna Haye Krishna from movie Kishen Kanhaiya created by him.

Jatin lalit was the best composer of the 90s

Jatin-Lalit is also a good music director's as same as Nadeem-Shravan, Anand-Milind, Anu Malik and Viju Shah. Jatin-Lalit has also done many numerous hits like D.d.l.j, Sarfarosh, Ghulam, Kutch Kutch Hota Hai, Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Ghum, Hum Tum, Jab Pyaar Kisise Hota Hai, Veer-Zaara, etc..... They r ma one of among fav music directors. BY Saikumar, Navsari, Gujarat.

Harris is Copied Company. His Composing is Prooved it ! ARR is Inspired Some Music from YUVAN. Will u want to Proof that please Join with us in Facebook :- Arshad seven. U1 is Musical Genius

in my view harris jayaraj is the present top music director in south india(most bttr thn ARR),,, once u listen to his musics,,u'l be addictive...sure.. and he knw, hw to develop bck ground musics very well...

he deserves top 5 slot.., guess u havnt listened all of songs.

sir u r really great

harris is great.his songs have soul.

harris is the second most top director in india..... he is the man

he is the melody maestro

He is the best music director according to me. He has had a great influence in my life. Whenever I feel sad or happy or something, I just listen to his music. Wonderful music director. He is an unsung hero in Indian Film Industry. He deserves better.

awesome music and backround score

main thing is directors wil not using him in proper way otherwise he can give music and backgrund batter than others....... i hope he wil giv music for bllwd films...he started his career with film RATH......WHICH WAS DIRECTED BY ramgopal.......

king of bgm's.. this is funny.. can somebody tell me for which movie his background was noteworthy???

the king of BGM's

mani sharma position should be at 1st cause , I think mani sharma (god father of tolly wood) the reason why he is at back rows is only because of giving music to telugu . he scored number of songs than any one ,more than 150 films &more than 1000 songs there is no comparision between Mani &others ,back ground score of his is unbeaten , people who says that mani is not a good composer ,they dont have luck to feel his music.

manisharmas may not be legend but he is a good music director.His movies athadu ,pokiri and other chirnajeevi films are good musical block buster as well.These all are not his copied version from other tracks.

Mani is great,coming to copying songs even ARR also not exception he also did and doing. If you take top10 Telugu block busters,for 8 movies Mani is the music director. And he has more than 5 silver Jublie movies :)

People who comment him should listen to Morning Raga, murari, arjun, khaleja and a lottttt.... out of his 1000 songs he hardly got inspired for 20 songs and I bet those so called copy songs are far better than originals.. Excellent orchestrization. No doubt he is the king of BGM. any doubts??? Lots of Mahesh, chiru and Balakrishna's movies are hit coz of the BGM provided by Mani..

just listen his background score in athadu.u will understand what mani is.

dont make me wild by comparing with AR......

no doubt he is one of the greatest back ground scorer in india than A R Rehman

mani sharma ,he is alrounder in music he jst rocked in telugu n tamil ,excellent den rahman

he is the fatest keyboard player in india.not even rehman plays the keyboard like mani.look at his background scores so amazing.mani is the only competitor to rehman

after the arrival of manisharma only telugu songs gets its recognition

manisharma music rockz forever

yeh sure manisharma is a compitator to a.r.rehman

manisharma is one of the best music director in south indian composition ,espescially in telugu and i can confidentallly challenge him that he is one who can be the compitetor to A.R.rehaman . He has a caption as"melody brahmma"

HR is best musician in the world .....Jai matadi let's rock

Best singer in india for me

He's is badass. Nobody can compete with him

He is the best music director, singer and composer of India. He is also a very good actor, lyricist,etc. He deserves the 1st position. He is one and only rockstar of India.

Jai Mata Di Lets Rock

He is one of finest composer in India.

best music director forever in the history of bollywood

best music director in the world and he gave continuously 36 hits in 2007 and after completing 100 films he breaks all the past records with teri meri teri prem kahani JAI MATA DI LETS ROCK

Please don't mind for the above long comment Himesh ji. I don't want to hurt you.This is the fact .I am always a great fan of you composed music.I always love your music.I always argue with my friends that Himesh is the best director in India .But I always dislike your voice. I am a big critisizer of your voice.

He is one of finest composer in India.But he is not getting offers from producer & also he is not having reputation as before.The reason for this is clear.He destroys his composed songs by singing himself because his voice is so much irritating.Better one is to stop this thing.The films in whick he has worked as a composer but not as a singer are supe duper musical hit films.Examples are tere naam,maine pyar kyun kiya,dil mange more,aitraaz,kya dil ne kaha,kahin pyar na ho jaye,Dulhan hum le jayenge,hello brother,kyun ki,pyar kiya to darna kya ,ishq hai tumse etc.These are super duper musical hit films in which Himesh has just worked as music director , not as singer.The songs of these films are melodious,sweet & evergreen.So Mr Himesh please stop singing and then see what reputation you would get as music director and also there would be a long line of producer for taking you as music director in their films.This is good for you as well as music of India.

he has introduce sufi song with bass...and named sufirocks...........which accepeted by all music likers

He is the 1st Indian to perform at Wemble....and many concert world wide and made India proud

Pritam sir u r the best composer.....

PRITAM is the KING OF ALL jonours of songs specially ROMANTIC Songs He is a COMPLETE PACAKGE .............

pritam is best

the most genius of the music in the world...i listen song only due to pritam

I Love Pritam Songs .....He is currently the best in India

he is the best. amazing one. i just love his songs. he should be at no.1.afterall his music rockzzzzzzz.:)pritam sir u r awesome.

No Doubt , he is a legend , he degrades himself by overpraising other industry music directors , self respect needed for him .

Keeravani is the living legend beacause of him only telugu music is der ..no expiry date for his songs lst 20 years he has been in industry he is great nice melody king

I would say he is the best after k.v mahadevan and ilayaraja.. the whole ratings are not correct.. and yes more than others keeravani can compose any type of music..

He is an ultimate background music director but we cannot expect good songs from him except devotional type.

he is great but underrated

he is best composer in india he can compose any type of music

MM Keeravani is the best music director for using violin but he is doing telugu nativity musics....

what a music director and singer he is, no comparison, his most songs are touchy and famous.

he is another bigggg CHOR music director.

Don't know how he has got -17 points here... But Bappi da as a composer is quite complementary of a singer Bappi da... He is a fair enough music director..

I rank ANU MALIK the best melodious music composer. Hes the best

has he ever created any original music...probably there is a scarcity of music director thats y his name came in the list

jisne pritam ko chor bola bo sayed ye nahi janta ki after2000 pritam music is the highest selling all over india.

above proves, he is biggest CHOR of bollywood music (after PRITAM).

Someone has written that Anu Malik is a Chor.May I know what is the thing which he has done CHORI & from where he has done the CHORI?Just give some examples.

in one line ANU MALIK is a CHOR music director. he can't create music.

Listen to any melodious number of Anu Malik, you will love it!

The best melodious music composer of all time.

Anu Malik, is one of the most famous music composers for Hindi

Best composer of film Industry

Disaapointed to see Naushad Sahab on 24th position..

nausad is also a very fine music director of his time..

King Director of Indian Music History

Believe me you get addicted to his compositions once you listen to his songs . He should be in top ten but unfortunately most of his compositions are in kannada and few tamil and telgu so is not that popular in other film industries.He deserve to be in top ten . people call him "Nada Bhrama" which means The bramha of music.

Naada bramha is the top 1 music director in india

Naadha Brahma should be in top 10.. beautiful lyrics and music

deserve to be in top10.. not here.. introduce new style of composing and lyrics... top most music director,lyrisist,human being.............

one of the best in world

the best music director......and lyricist

An excellent composer and lyricist, for me he is definitely in top 5

SPB considers Hamsalekha as the best composer. But the composer is restricted to Kannada and hence is not popular but he definitely gets in top 10.

Yes Hamsalekha sir should be in top 5 list. People dont identify originality which he has given to music composition. Sir's Lyrics writing is awesome and meaningful i am really proud i born in karnataka to listen to sir's music. Plz listen to his songs Sir is Master No one can be Like Hamsalekha Sir

may be he is the only one who tried 5 different style of music in a single song...he should be in top 5 list,unfortunately he got 32nd herehe has composed 33 films in a single year(he has written lyrics for them too!!) and most of his songs're hit....one of the pure,genius music composer hats of hams.

Legendary composer. Best thing about Hamsalekha is that he is allergic to copying stuff. He has told in interviews that, whenever Directors approach him to copy some telugu/tamil song, he has rejected such offers telling If I compose it will be my composition. His songs are totally, pure 100% his creations. Even with all this, he ruled kannada industry for nearly 1.5 decades. LEGEND. Checkout SriManjunatha, Haalunda tavaru, Muttina hara, prema loka, and endless list.

king of melodies.....

Hahaha.. Really?

upcoming music director

Young talent but fabulous compositions and He is like A R Rehaman of kannada industry

No one can compose gazals like Madan Mohan. It is just impossible. Perhaps even God is trying to create another music director like him but has not succeeded till now. Hope God will send someone shortly

Master of Melody songs

Still Malayalam music lovers are waiting for his come back. If he comes again the Malayalam music Industry will be in its top with full of melody songs of its Golden Era of the 1980's. We await for your coming Shyam Sir.

Still his melodies in the Golden Era (190) of Malayalam Film Industry is great and his back ground musics for "Oru CBI Diary Kuruppu", "Irupatham Noottandu","Sagar Elias Jacky", "August 1" and "August 15" are used as Ring Tones for Mobiles even by the new generation.

Nachiketa Chokroborty is an original talent. His lyrics, composition, voice everything is excellent.His composition in movie " Hothat Bristi" is enough for justification

Yaa of course he is awesome... A great music director as well as a singer (quite like Rahman) If Nachi were in National level, singers like Daler Mehendi etc. would just be a good listeners of Nachi Da's Composition!!!

Great musicion Awesome music Always gvs different music Give hort ful music Like muvies r Madrasupattanom Yoganiki okkadu Thalyva Endukante premanta Darling Kakka muttai..

Rubbish.. he can give best musics than DSP and others,quality should be consider first

mano murthy made only few films but almost all musical hit.......

Amit Trivedi is the future of Hindi music. His work in Dev D and Aisha is exceptional. Udaan too shows how ORIGINAL and talented he is.

Mindblowing compositions????????? No way............................. He is one of most foolish composer in India.Except Aisha he hasn't composed good music in any film.About rest films we can use a simple word called घटिया.But we foolish persons say that he is one of finest composer.No way.........................

He is one of the most versatile music composers ever. Sadly, apart from keralites, no one else listen to malayalam songs. So, in terms of poppularity, him being in 54th position is justified, but in terms of talent he should be in the top 5.

AT 46th position?? He can easily come in 1st 20th.. Greatest from malayalam industry.

true

He compose the song his own style.., He built lot of fans by his music in the south indian film industry,
