Jeet Ganguly

Jeet Ganguly (born Chandrajeet Ganguly Bengali: চন্দ্রজিৎ গাঙ্গুলী), or Jeet as he is known to many, is a music director and composer for Tollywood and Bollywood movies. He was formerly teamed with Pritam.

Born in a distinguished family with a rich cultural heritage in North Kolkata, Jeet was initiated into the world of Sur, Laya and Taal at the age of three. Jeet has been trained in both Indian and Western classical music. Absorbing the best of these two streams of music, Jeet today is a successful music director in Mumbai.

Jeet got his first break when Sanjay Gadhvi was signed on to direct Tere Liye and he, in turn, signed on his friends Jeet and Pritam as music composers. In 2002 Yash Raj Films signed Gadhvi up to direct Mere Yaar Ki Shaadi Hai, for which the Jeet-Pritam duo once again composed the music. All the songs from that movie were hits.

After the duo parted ways, Jeet has started scoring music for Hindi and Bengali films, TV serials and jingles.
