Perspective
Girishh was born on 26 September 1986 in Tanjore, Tamil Nadu. He is a student of violinist Lalgudi Jayaraman and started learning music under him from the age of 8.[2] He also trained in western classical music under the late Das Daniel.[2]
Girishh graduated as an engineer in 2008 and went on to do his master's degree in music composition at Leeds College of Music. He then continued to stay on in the UK working as a freelance Composer and Conductor for Orchestras, composing music for film, dance and theatre productions.[2]
In October 2011, Girishh got a chance to meet Pandiraj through Sivakarthikeyan, who eventually signed him on to compose music for Marina, as he required an international sound to the film's score.[1] The music for Marina released on 9 January 2012, to extremely positive reviews, critical acclaim and popularity,[3][4] with the song "Vanakkam Chennai" and its promo video going viral.[5][6] The film's soundtrack and background score received critical acclaim.[7][8][9]
After Marina, Girishh worked on director Balaji K. Kumar's "Vidiyum Munn", an experimental thriller. The film features the song "Penne" sung by British Singer Susheela Raman.[10][11]
"Vidiyum Munn" released on 29 November 2013, to rave reviews for the film, the film's music and the background score,[12][13][14][15] which was recorded in Manchester, UK with players from the BBC Philharmonic Orchestra.
