Career

Rokesh worked as a machine operator in the Parry's area of Chennai and had established a reputation for being a gana songwriter in his local area, Vyasarpadi.[2] Rokesh was first introduced to K. V. Anand & Harris Jayaraj by Kiran, who worked as the art director for Anand's film Anegan (2015). The director - music director duo gave Rokesh a list of 150 words of North Madras specific vocabulary for reference and explained the situation for a song, and Rokesh returned with the final version of "Danga Maari" during the next day.[3][4] He has since gone on to write songs for other films including Maari and Vedalam (2015).[5]
