'''Manoj–Gyan''' was an Indian musical duo consisting of composers '''Manoj Bhatnagar''' and '''Gyan Varma'''.<ref>{{Cite web|title=டியூனுக்கு எழுதுவதில் சிக்கல்! - கவிஞர் முத்துலிங்கம்|url=https://www.dinamani.com/weekly-supplements/dinamani-kondattam/2018/aug/05/டியூனுக்கு-எழுதுவதில்-சிக்கல்---கவிஞர்-முத்துலிங்கம்-2974347.html|access-date=2022-02-20|website=Dinamani|language=ta}}</ref> 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]].

== About ==
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>{{Cite web|url=https://www.tamilguardian.com/content/tholvi-nilayena-oomai-vizhigal?articleid=3140|title=Tholvi Nilayena (Oomai Vizhigal) | Tamil Guardian|website=www.tamilguardian.com}}</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>{{Cite web|url=https://tamilminutes.com/manoj-gyan-music-director-1259282/|title=இசை மாயாஜாலங்களை நிகழ்த்திய இரட்டை இசையமைப்பாளர்கள்- மனோஜ் கியான் - Tamil Minutes|date=10 October 2019}}</ref>
