I thought this is his 5th, but in many websites its written as This is the First National Award for Background Score. Yes, in my List of Movie Data Base many movies in Tamil, Hindi and Malayalam have Different Music Directors for Songs and BGM.<br />Pravin Mani used compose the Background score for many Tamil films which he didn't actually was the Song Composer even in Few Malayalam Movies.P S Arjunhttp://myreviews-arjunps.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2995232424873037966.post-83517345356026536392010-09-15T07:20:21.164-07:002010-09-15T07:20:21.164-07:00What a Foresight :) Amit Trivedi & Raaja have ...What a Foresight :) Amit Trivedi & Raaja have won the awards!<br /><br />rajasaranamAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2995232424873037966.post-76937138981460537022010-08-29T10:22:57.783-07:002010-08-29T10:22:57.783-07:00Aakarsh - Well done.

Its very rare to find people who are talking about original scores. I am quite glad to see a person from my country who beautifully analyzes the original score from various part of the world. <br /><br />I wish you a good luck.Anonymoushttp://(optional)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2995232424873037966.post-54974825287396686052010-08-25T08:10:28.135-07:002010-08-25T08:10:28.135-07:00Ramesh - Dev.D - Songs and background score are by...Ramesh - Dev.D - Songs and background score are by Amit Trivedi. And though the film is full of songs, he won some Bollywood awards in 'Best Background Score' category for Dev.D. I am still not sure, whether one can call Amit's music for Dev.D a background score. This is another topic to contemplate on. <br /><br />But No. The other composer in contention, in my opinion, is not Amit Trivedi.P.S.

The documents that I read related to National Film Awards says, if the Jury members are not sure of something, they can seek help from experts in the respective fields, to decide a winner in that category. I guess they have been doing that for Sound mixing, Editing categories all this while. I hope they do that for this category.P.S.

Only sometimes, due to some genuine reason, another composer was asked to step in, for background score.<br /><br />i think having only 1 composer to do both is the best practice and it solves lot of issues. Firstly, it gives the composer the whole idea of the film, so that he can form/build his own thoughtware, for songs and music and can use themes/concepts from each to create pieces. Secondly, it would be easy for the film-maker to express what he wants, in songs and background score.The interaction (which is sadly missing these days) is very vital.And i am sure it would be financially beneficial for film-maker to have just 1 composer for everything.And Lastly, this credits sharing issue wouldnt be there.<br /><br /><br />I am curious about the panel of judges, in this category. I would be hugely disappointed if the panel consists of ad-film-makers or people occupying high positions in National Films Division or FTII etc.The panel should have a combination of musically knowledgeable film-makers as well as composers.and both, veterans as well as new-breed ones.Aakarshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15943886586244410709noreply@blogger.com
