K. Ratnesh a Mumbai based Music Director is known for creating soulful melodies. He has scored variety of music for many Films, Television Serials and some Tv commercials but his first love seems to be Bhojpuri cinema as he has spared his maximum time in recording studios in Mumbai and Bihar for Bhojpuri music and many of his numbers turned chart busters.
