V. Selvaganesh is an Indian percussionist working in the Carnatic tradition and one of the leading kanjira player of his generation. He is also known as Chella S. Ganesh. He made his debut composing for films with the Tamil movie Vennila Kabadi Kuzhu. He next scored the music for the Tamil film Kola Kolaya Mundhirika (2009) where he had composed a diverse album containing a Punjabi-style Bhangra song sung by his favorite singer Shankar Mahadevan, a south Indian folk song, a hip-hop number, and an romantic ballad that brings together singers S. P. Balasubrahmanyam and K. S. Chithra after a very long time. The theme track of the film brought together Swedish guitarists Mattias Eklundh on his signature electric guitar and Jonas Hellborg on the bass respectively, Ranjit Barot on the drums, and Selvaganesh’s father Vikku Vinayakram on the Ghatam. It marks the first time that so many world-renowned musicians have collaborated in the history of Tamil film music.
