Sagar of Unscripted Symphony
July 12, 2025
|The New Indian Express Hyderabad
At the Parnasala Youth Excellence (PYE) Awards 2025, the indie-rooted composer Vivek Sagar opens up in an exclusive chat with CE about his unconventional journey, the freedom of jamming without a plan, and why authenticity always trumps formulas in his musical world
AVE you ever heard his music? Familiar, yet elusive. Subtle, yet stirring. Vivek Sagar has an uncanny ability to elevate a film without overshadowing its essence. His compositions feel like a quiet companion to the story, never loud, but always present. Whether it's the laid-back charm of Ee Nagaraniki Emaindi, the emotional cadence of Brochevarevarura, or the recent soul-stirring track 35 - Chinna Katha Kaadhu, his music doesn't just touch ears, it lingers in the soul.
me the story, that becomes the main inspiration. If you ask me specifically about musical inspiration, there are many. But it's not like I sit down and think, "I'll take inspiration from this track." That doesn't really happen. Sometimes it even ends up sounding like a copy. So I avoid that. I just listen to a lot of music. It all stays in the subconscious, and it comes out naturally.
