9. Lucky Bhaskar – G.V. Prakash Kumar:
Director Venky Atluri revealed that one audience member described G.V. Prakash Kumar’s BGM as having the same impact as a “Naatu Naatu” moment. That’s high praise! Prakash’s score brilliantly enhances the thrilling moments, character emotions, and heroic elevations of Lucky Bhaskar, creating a high-octane crime drama atmosphere.
8. Haroharam – Chaitan Bharadwaj:
Chaitan Bharadwaj’s score for Haroharam is as powerful as the KGF score for Yash, offering a similar level of heroic elevation. The interval BGM, in particular, provides a next-level cinematic experience. Even without seeing the film, listening to the OST conveys the grandeur.
7. Kaa – Sam CS:
The intriguing soundtrack of Kaa generated significant interest from the trailer itself. Sam CS delivers a unique musical experience, deviating from the usual soundtrack, and significantly contributing to the suspense and mystery of the film. The climax, combined with Kiran Abbavaram’s performance, feels like a true mass hero fight, leading to Sam CS’s subsequent involvement in Pushpa 2.
6. Guntur Kaaram – S.S. Thaman:
If you haven’t yet heard the Guntur Kaaram OST, you’re missing out! Thaman’s work is phenomenal. From the stylish hero entry music and the energetic “Dham Dham Masala” song to the deeply emotional BGM. Thaman masterfully manipulates the “Dham Dham Masala” theme to create diverse emotional responses. The interval BGM is a prime example. The film’s emotional resonance and successful mass scenes are greatly enhanced by Thaman’s music.
5. Saripada Saanivaar – Jake Bejoy:
Jake Bejoy’s BGM for Saripada Saanivaar elevates Vivek Athreya’s scenes multiple times over, arguably serving as the film’s second lead. Intentionally or not, the heroic BGM begins precisely when the music director’s name appears in the title cards.The interval BGM and the fight scene revealing the heroine’s identity are particularly memorable, with the climax fight being another highlight. This score is considered one of the best heroic BGMs not only in 2024 but also in Nani’s career.
4. Kalki 2898 AD – santhosh narayanan:
The main task for A.R. Rahman’s score wasn’t just heroic music; it was to transport the audience into the film’s world and connect them with the characters’ emotions. The soundtrack expertly blends old and futuristic elements, balancing the mythological and dystopian aspects of the film. The climax reveal of Karna is a standout moment, lifting the audience from their seats.
3. Hanuman – Gowra Hari and Anudeep:
The background score for Hanuman needed to be grand, devotional, and goosebump-inducing. GowraHari, Anudeep Dev and Krishna Saurabh delivers all that and more, creating a wholly new world for the audience. Mixing Sanskrit shlokas with the grand music was a masterstroke, leading to truly immersive theatrical experiences. The climax fight and the use of the shlokas are particularly impactful.
2. Pushpa: The Rule – Devi Sri Prasad:
Devi Sri Prasad’s rustic score for Pushpa 2 takes the drama and hero elevations to the next level. The climax BGM is especially captivating, creating an unforgettable atmosphere. The strategic use of silence before the intense music during Pushpa’s fight, combined with the “Ammavari” lyrics, creates a powerful effect. The “Gangamma Thalli” Jathara episode is another example of intense, trance-inducing music.
1. Devara – Anirudh Ravichander:
Anirudh Ravichander’s score for Devara is a testament to his skill and the trust placed in him by NTR Jr.’s fans. From the very start, Anirudh’s music elevates each scene, never being loud unnecessarily. The pre-interval and interval BGMs are absolute highlights. The remix of the “Vara” BGM with the “Daavudhi” score is a masterful stroke. The film’s success is heavily attributed to Anirudh’s background score.

Aavesham – Sushin Shyam:
The music perfectly blends with Fahadh Faasil’s character, enhancing the mood and emotions of each scene, creating an unforgettable emotional experience.
Manjummel Boys – Sushin Shyam:
This equally soulful soundtrack stands out for its unsettling quality after the initial downfall, with the song “Preetma Nee Vacchata Kusalama” being exceptionally brilliant.
