"The storyline stole my heart in minutes - MM Keeravani"

Mumbai, June 30

Oscar-winning composer MM Keeravani, who has composed the music for actor Anupam Kher's directorial 'Tanvi The Great,' shared how he instantly agreed to be a part of the project.

Speaking with ANI, Keeravani, who is best known globally for his work in RRR, said that the idea of the film won his heart in just a few minutes. He also recalled receiving a call from Kher while travelling in Kerala.

"When Anupam Sir called me while I was travelling in Kerala, he briefed me about the storyline for 8 to 10 minutes. Then, instantly, the storyline stole my heart. And I said, 'Sir, I'll be honored to compose music for this movie,'" he said.

Keeravani also shared that he had the chance to compose both the songs and the background score for the film.

"I had the privilege of composing the background score as well, apart from the nine songs in the movie. It was a great experience," he added.

The trailer, which was unveiled earlier today, introduces people to Tanvi, a girl who is different but no less. Tanvi The Great is a "testament to the unbreakable spirit of hope and triumph," according to a press note.

Anupam Kher directing and MM Keeravani composing - what a dream team! The storyline about a differently-abled girl sounds inspiring. Hope the music does justice to such an important subject.

I'm a bit skeptical - after such massive success with RRR, can Keeravani ji deliver something equally powerful? The pressure must be huge. But knowing his talent, I'm sure he'll surprise us again!

As someone who loved Keeravani's work in Baahubali and RRR, I'm excited to see him collaborate with Bollywood veterans. The combination of his South Indian musical roots with Anupam Kher's vision could be magical!

The fact that Keeravani agreed within 10 minutes of hearing the story says everything! Our Indian composers are truly world-class. Hope this film gets the same international recognition as RRR did 🇮🇳
