Hamara Forums _ Kannada _ The Genius Of M.venkata Raju

Posted by: Yadavagiri5 Oct 7 2008, 03:16 PM

M.Venkata Raju was an exceptionally talented music director with a very high ratio of beautiful/inferior tunes. Untimely death put an end to his career, depriving Kannada moviedom of hundreds of melodious songs. He composed music for (as far as I know) only eight films, Bhaktha Kanakadaasa(1960), Chandra Kumaara(1963),Jeevana Tharanga(1963),Nandaadeepa(1963),Raajaa Sathyavratha(1961),Shri Dharmasthhala Mahaathme(1962), Swarna Gouri(1962) and Thejaswini(1962). I am uploading what in my view are the best 30 songs composed by him.
