A tribute to MJ. Composed by my friends.
Saikat Roy and Shankar R aren’t your typical music composer duo.
These techies have worked every inch of their way, without a godfather, up
to break into one of the largest music industries in the world. True
to their IIT Kanpur roots, Saikat and Shankar have brought innovation
– the hallmark of this great institution, to the music industry.
They were featured on Channel V as the first Indian music directors to
compose an album entirely through collaborations over the internet
using social networking as mechanism to create a melting pot for
talent across the world. They take an innovative approach to creating
music by focusing on specific themes whether it’s a tribute to Michael
Jackson, a voice against social discrimination or like now as they
work towards strengthening the brand of their alma mater through an
anthem.
Highlighted work:
- Recorded song “Tum” with Kumar Sanu. Music composed by Saikat Roy and Shankar R
- Composing and co-producing a song with Sonu Niigaam paying tribute to

many new upcoming singers
