'''Manoj Gyan''' is a colloquial term used to refer to the duo of music directors '''Manoj Saran / Manoj Bhatnagar''' and '''Gyan Varma.''' In the 1980s, the two collaboratively composed music for a few [[Hindi]]-language as well as [[Tamil language|Tamil]]-language films. Manoj hails from the state of [[Uttar Pradesh]], while Gyan is from [[Punjab]].

==Career==
In the 1980s the duo ended up composing for movies like [[Oomai Vizhigal]], [[Senthoora Poove]] and [[Inaindha Kaigal]], and these movies had several hit songs.

In particular, the song "Tholvi Nilayena Ninaithal" sung by [[P B Srinivas]] in the movie [[Oomai Vizhigal]] became a runaway hit. The song went on to assume the role of an unofficial anthem of sorts for the [[LTTE]] in Sri Lanka.<ref>http://www.tamilguardian.com/article.asp?articleid=3140</ref>

The two split up around 1989. Following the split, Gyan Verma scored music for a couple of films on his own including [[Inaindha Kaigal]] and [[Sathya Vaakku]]. Manoj also tried his hand at scoring in a film titled ''[[Panthaya Kuthiraigal]]'', but the film wasn't released to the public.

Years later, Manoj built a recording theater and eventually returned as a producer-music director in 1998, assuming the name of Manoj Bhatnagar. He produced and also directed the music for two films "[[Endrendrum Kadhal]]" (starring Vijay) and "[[Good Luck (2000 film)|Good Luck]]" (starring Prashant). Both films received positive response with the audiences and critics.<ref>http://www.tfmpage.com/forum/3972.23.33.57.html</ref>
