\"TanishkTanishk Bagchi, the composer behind Saiyaara’s success, highlights the struggle for recognition faced by music creators in Bollywood. He acknowledges his father’s unfulfilled musical aspirations as a driving force. Bagchi praises director Mohit Suri for supporting composers but expresses disappointment with production houses for overlooking their contributions after a song’s success. As Saiyaara continues its dream run at the box office, music composer Tanishk Bagchi<\/a> is riding high on the film\u2019s success. But behind the chartbusters and accolades lies a story of grit, passion, and a long fight for recognition. The composer\u2014whose work has played a vital role in the film\u2019s emotional depth\u2014recently opened up about his journey, the legacy of his father, and the industry\u2019s persistent failure to credit music creators. <\/p>\n

The Credit Gap in the Industry<\/p>\n

In a recent interview with BollywoodShaadis, Tanishk opened up about his deep connection with music, calling every form\u2014be it bhajan, kirtan, or film songs\u2014a form of art. He shared that music is his passion, and whether it\u2019s recreating classics or composing originals, he puts his heart into it. However, he also voiced a long-standing frustration faced by many composers like himself and his father: the lack of proper credit. Tanishk pointed out that while songs like Saiyaara become hits and his name is associated with them, people rarely acknowledge the years of hard work behind the scenes. Instead, the spotlight often goes to actors, directors, and promoters who are more socially visible.<\/p>\n

Carrying Forward His Father\u2019s Legacy<\/p>\n

The composer reflected on his journey and paid tribute to his father, a talented musician who faced many struggles and couldn\u2019t achieve the recognition he deserved. Tanishk shared that he sees his own success as a continuation of his father\u2019s legacy, humbly stating that he\u2019s not a big music director, but someone carrying forward his parents\u2019 musical gifts.He praised director Mohit Suri<\/a> for actively promoting composers and supporting their work. However, he expressed disappointment with production houses, stating that once they buy the music and it becomes a hit, they quickly move on to the next project without acknowledging the creators.Tanishk also pointed out how composers are often left out of promotional materials, including film posters and social media. \u201cI make a song and don’t go beating the drums saying I have done it,\u201d he said, highlighting how the hard work of music directors often goes unnoticed in the glamor of film promotions.<\/p>\n

Recognition Often Comes Too Late<\/p>\n

Bagchi further opened up about the emotional weight behind his musical journey, admitting that despite putting in immense hard work, recognition often remains elusive for composers like him. He finds it rare when a music director is properly credited and feels strongly that his creative energy comes from his parents, especially his father, whose unfulfilled musical dreams fuel his own drive.He recalled a pivotal moment in his life back in Kolkata, when he first realised that music was his true calling. That decision, he shared, became the defining turning point of his career. From that day onward, he committed to pursuing music with full responsibility, determined to rise on his own without relying on anyone else. For Tanishk, it wasn\u2019t just about sacrifice\u2014it was about persistence and holding on, no matter how tough the path.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Tanishk Bagchi, the composer behind Saiyaara’s success, highlights the struggle for recognition faced by music creators in Bollywood.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":24730,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[5907,64,63,24372,134,2912,344,24371,24370,2913,5905,24374,24369,24373],"class_list":["post-24729","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-movies","tag-ahaan-panday","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-credit-gap-in-music","tag-entertainment","tag-mohit-suri","tag-movies","tag-music-composer","tag-music-legacy","tag-saiyaara","tag-saiyaara-box-office","tag-saiyaara-box-office-success","tag-tanishk-bagchi","tag-tanishk-bagchi-saiyaara"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24729","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=24729"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24729\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/24730"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=24729"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=24729"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=24729"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
