For Dhirendra Mulkalwar, turning composer with Hanuman Ansh is nothing short of a divine experience. After composing nearly 500 jingles and working as a music producer on films, taking the leap into music direction with a film about spiritual guru Neem Karoli Baba — who Mulkalwar is a follower of — seemed fitting. Having created the film’s background score and composed Siyavar Ramchandra Ki Jai, he tells mid-day how surrendering to Neem Karoli Baba
helped him find the movie’s melody.
