Chirantan Bhat is the son of Arun Bhatt a noted Gujarati filmmaker and grandson of famous producer and director of Hindi Cinema, Vijay Bhatt. Mission Istanbul (2008) is his first movie as a composer. After this film, he composed for many movies. Romantic songs in Bollywood have a typical feel and music director Chirantan Bhatt’s musical numbers is no different from that. Whenever there is demand for more melody, romance, emotions, we all look at today’s music composer Chirantan Bhat( earlier it was Pritam and Annu Malik). 

The greatest ideology on which this composer sets music is that he introduced soft rock instrumentation to add melody that always has smooth and relaxed feeling. This music director has been in the news for donning the composers’ hat for many popular songs in Bollywood and just now had made his debut in Tollywood too. Born and brought up un a family of film-makers, singer and musician Chirantan Bhatt rose to fame with hit songs like ‘Teri Meri Kahaani’, ‘Mission Mission’ and ‘Kabhi Na Kabhi. Sometimes we find his soundtrack is best, especially for a number ‘Nijamenani Nammani’ sung by Shreya Ghosal, which brings out’ Charukesi raga’ that revokes inexplicable emotion in our heart. In many of his composition we find even the opening “alaap” is always unmistakable. It is true sometime his composition is quite repetitive and we have heard umpteen songs that have similar arrangements. But definitely one would agree that every song of Chirantan has huge appeal and a passable number always. Today, Bhatt’s style means a composition that has a mix of melodious, rock and love songs. In future, we hope he will share more the evolving music scene in the country
