Sean Roldan

Sean Roldan—now there’s a name that’s been buzzing around the south Indian film music scene for a while, and honestly, it’s for good reason. The guy’s got some proper range, flipping from punchy, wild soundtracks to soulful, heart-thumping melodies. If you’ve caught Jai Bhim (2021), you know exactly what I mean. That soundtrack isn’t just background noise—it’s visceral, it grabs you by the collar and drags you right into the thick of the film’s tension. He doesn’t shy away from tough themes; instead, he leans in, using every instrument in his arsenal to crank up the emotion. But Sean's magic didn’t just appear overnight. Go back a little—Jigarthanda (2014) is where you really see him flex. That movie’s a bit nuts in all the best ways, and the music? It’s unpredictable, cheeky, sometimes even downright bizarre, but it sticks with you. That’s Sean doing his thing—never playing it safe, always keeping your ears guessing. Then you’ve got Mundaasupatti (2014), which, let’s be real, is a wild ride all on its own. The soundtrack manages to feel retro and fresh at the same time, like someone tossed nostalgia and modern beats into a blender. There’s a playfulness to it, but he never loses the thread of the story. Sean Roldan’s got this knack for making music that isn’t just catchy, it’s got teeth. It bites into a film’s vibe and doesn’t let go.
