In the last few months, music directors from Tamil, especially Yuvan Shankar Raja, Srikanth Deva and Harris Jeyaraj have been ruling the roost here. Many of the local musicians had to take a back seat here. Only Keeravani shone with his outstanding work in Sri Ramadasu (of course, he blotted his copybook through some unwarranted comments on the movie in an interview later).
Anyway, the good news is that Telugu musicians seem to be back in favor. Devi Sri Prasad seems to have redeemed himself through Pournami. Now another old warhorse R P Patnaik is in circulation again. R P, who had been busy in Kannada, is now set to score tunes for his old friend Teja. The duo had given many memorable movies together in the past. R P will score the music for Teja's movie for Kalyanram. R P's tunes will also be heard in Sairam Shankar's movie. Elsewhere, Manisharma is also getting busy with movies like Satyam Shivam Sundaram.
