Associated with South Indian film soundtracks; the compilation Dance Raja Dance (Asia Classics 1) collects music attributed to Vijaya Anand. Reviews describe the material as playful, pop-disco and Bollywood-influenced, rooted in cinematic storytelling.

Armand's DeBaser review (3/5) spots playful, pop-disco flavours in Vijaya Anand's film soundtracks collected on Dance Raja Dance (Asia Classics 1). The piece mixes a postcolonial critique of Western musical dominance with an appreciation for the compilation's cinematic, story-driven melodies. Overall the review finds the material fun and fulfilling despite initial misgivings.

For:Listeners of world music and South Indian/Bollywood film soundtracks; readers interested in soundtrack compilations and cultural critiques.

 You will then understand that proposing these soundtracks of films composed by the same director, Vijaya Anand, which at first seem ridiculous, is quite a fight against windmills.
