Vijay Anand (died 6 February 2024) was an Indian composer who worked in South Indian films, mainly Tamil and Kannada.
Career[edit]
Vijay Anand was originally a composer for Visu's stage plays.[1] He debuted in film with the Tamil film Oorukku Upadesam (1984),[2] and went to score for more Tamil films including Naanayam Illatha Naanayam (1984), Naan Adimai Illai (1986), Kavalan Avan Kovalan (1987), Vetri Mel Vetri (1989) and Rasathi Varum Naal (1991). Naan Adimai Illai remains Vijay Anand's best known Tamil film. He was, however, more prolific in Kannada cinema, where he composed for over 180 films. After a point, his success derailed as he received no further opportunities in the film industry. He also composed the music for two English-language albums.[3][4]
Personal life[edit]
Vijay Anand was married to Amali, and the two have a daughter.[1] He died in Chennai on 6 February 2024, at age 71, following health issues since December 2023.[5][6]
