Carmeni Selvam is a Heart-Touching Film: Music Director Ramanujan

“Carmeni Selvam” is a bilingual film made in Telugu and Tamil under the Pathway Productions banner, produced by Arun Rangarajulu and directed by Ram Chakri. The film features versatile actor Samuthirakani in the lead role, with Gautham Vasudev Menon playing a key role. Other important cast members include Lakshmi Priya, Abhinaya, Karthik Kumar, Badava Gopi, Kothandam, Karan Chakravarthy, Shankara Narayanan V, and Haritha Parakod.

The film’s music has been composed by Ramanujan MK through his company Musicloud Studio & Technology under the concept of “Music as a Service.” The already released song “Arere” has emotionally connected with audiences. The film is set for a grand theatrical release on April 3 in both Telugu and Tamil, distributed by PVR INOX Pictures.

Speaking on this occasion, music director Ramanujan MK shared insights about the film: “We wanted the credit for composing music for a film to go not just to an individual, but to an organization. That’s why I started Musicloud Studio & Technology in Bengaluru in 2017. Initially, we took up corporate projects and gradually improved our capabilities. Later, we began collaborating with media companies, offering services like sound design, voice-overs, and dubbing.

Now, we are ready to release ‘Carmeni Selvam.’ For this film, instead of an individual music director’s name, we have credited Musicloud Studio & Technology under the ‘Music as a Service’ model. 

Meeting director Ram Chakri was a turning point in my life. For this film, I composed four songs, background score, and OST tracks. It was a team effort, with 4–5 members from our Music Cloud team working together. Music is never an individual effort; it’s always teamwork. The song ‘Arere Arere’ is receiving a great response in Telugu. Finally, ‘Carmeni Selvam’ is a heart-touching film that reflects the emotions we experience in life. I want my music to stay in the hearts of the audience more than my name.”
