Achint’s music could be described as a hybrid of sorts, heavily influenced by the culture of the Indian subcontinent and western aesthetics of composition and production.
In 2020, Achint composed music for the show ‘Scam 1992 - The Harshad Mehta Story’ which garnered much critical acclaim for depicting the the Indian stock market scam that took place in Bombay during the early 90’s. The Title Track of the show has since gone viral nationally and has seeped it’s way into modern Indian pop culture along with the show.
Achint released his debut album, ‘Shalimar’ which was nominated for Best Non Film Debut at the Global Indian Music Academy (GIMA) awards in 2016
Achint subsequently collaborated with the Khan Brothers from Rajasthan to create Achint & The Khan Brothers, a fusion album combining Rajasthani folk tunes with Achint’s enchanting and ethereal production and composition. Songs from the album have been used in the Netflix show ‘The Big Day’ as well as Bejoy Nambiar’s film ’Taish’.
As a media composer, Achint has worked with brands like Disney, Puma, MRF, Global Desi, Bender’s Pride, Budweiser, Bobbi Brown, The Gates Foundation, Philips and many others. Having worked with advertising agencies like DDB Mudra & Lowe Lintas, Achint has carved a niche for himself in the ad world for his unique sound and refreshing sensibilities.
Achint has also worked on shows the Amazon Prime’s ‘Four More Shots Please’ and the Netflix film ‘Maska’ as additional composer, collaborating with veteran music composer Mikey McCleary.
