Ghibran
Often credited solely by his surname, Mohamaad Ghibran is an Indian composer who writes award-winning music for films, commercials, and TV jingles. Born on August 20, 1980, in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, he watched Yanni perform a televised show at the Taj Mahal as a child. The experience inspired Ghibran to pursue music, and he began playing keyboard after moving moving to Chennai with his family as a teenager. He later relocated to Singapore and, in 2000, opened his own studio, where he created music for more than 700 ads. Several years later, he returned to India and began working with film director A. Sarkunam, who had scored a hit with his directorial debut, Kalavani. Sarkunam hired Ghibran to write the music for his follow-up film, Vaagai Sooda Vaa, which was released in 2011 and received nominations for "Best Music Director" from the Vijay Awards, the South Indian International Movie Awards, the Filmfare Awards South, and the Mirchi Music Awards. From there, Ghibran's career as a film composer flourished. His soundtrack for the 2014 film Thirumanam Enum Nikkah was named "Best Album of the Year" by the Mirchi Music Awards South, while Run Raja Run — also released in 2014 — marked his first time composing music in the Telugu language. One year later, he earned critical acclaim for his work on Uttama Villain, whose Tamil-language songs "Iraniyan Naadagam" and "Kaadhalaam" both won Diamond Awards from the International Independent Film Awards. By 2019, he was also composing music in Hindi and Malayalam, making him a multi-lingual songwriter. He remained prolific during the 2020s, spearheading the soundtracks for Maara, Kasada Thapara, Maha, and Pagaivanuku Arulvai in 2021 alone.
