To call actor and filmmaker-turned-politician Pawan Kalyan a powerhouse of Telugu cinema would be an understatement. From blockbusters like Khushi to Attarintiki Daaryedi, his unique brand of entertainment has gained respect across India, earning him millions of fans and box office success along the way. Get acquainted with the melodies he made famous with this exclusive playlist.

In the 2010s, Telugu film composers continued the tradition of inviting vocalists from across India to add a distinct, language-transcending touch—from singer-composer Anirudh Ravichander (more known for his work on Tamil soundtracks) to pop heartthrob Armaan Malik and playback star Amit Mishra. The likes of Devi Sri Prasad and Thaman S. floated rock, club-friendly electronic music and modern pop arrangements. And breaking talent included Sid Sriram, who climbed to the top with his Carnatic-trained harmonising that fuelled several indelible cross-genre hits.
