On a happy note In conversation with Sachin Warrier about making music that creates “Aanandam”

S

achin Warrier is a ball of positive energy right from the start of our conversation. He loves to laugh and talk, especially about music that make people happy, whether it be singing, composing or simply sharing playlists.

From the moment Sachin Warrier’s voice rang out in the jovial song “Maanya Maha Janangale” from Malavardi Arts Club, his presence has been marked in the Mollywood music industry. Six years and many Mollywood songs later, the singer is turning into a movie music director with Aaanandam releasing on October 21.

From singing to now music direction for Aanandam, how did you end up donning the music director avatar?

The director Ganesh Raj was a college mate and he had assisted for movies like Thattathin Marayathu and Bangalore Days, which I had also worked in. We ran in the same circle and talked to each other about our hopes and dreams for the future.

ACTION

Fathima Abdul Kader

As soon as I heard the story, I knew the movie would require happy tunes. I love creating such peppy tunes and I jumped at the opportunity. But I truly threw myself into the work after I consulted with Vineeth Sreenivasan and Shaan Rehman about this career move and they told me to go forth.They encouraged me further by telling me that a friend’s movie is the best place to try something daring.

I was a part of the movie from its conception. Ganesh kept sending me his drafts and I would help him by providing little notes of my own and create music that could help set a scene beautifully.

This went on for one and a half year as the draft kept getting better and better.

During one of our conversations he told me about the story he was planning on making in to a movie. At the time I had started doing jingles for advertisements and told him about how much I enjoyed music direction. Soon he called me up and asked if I’d like to do the music for his movie.

Talking about music albums, what do you listen to the most and who are your biggest inspirations?

Growing up I listened to a lot of AR Rahman, old hindi classics like Mohammed Rafi’s music , Yesudas sir and the heritage of Malayalam music. As I grew up I started following western artists like Jack Johnson, Glen Hansard, and some instrumental and ambient music too.

My biggest musical inspirations are independent artists. Bands from the 90s like Silk Route and Lucky Ali were some of the biggest inspirations for me.

How was the Aanandam experience as a music director?
