Career
Anup Rubens always wanted to be a stage performer. In his college days, he formed a rock band ‘Rockstar’ along with some of his friends and used to do stage shows.

Watching his work close during his stay with Chakri, PuriJagannadh offered him music director role for Ravi Teja’sItluSravaniSubrahmanyam. But at that young age, anup was not courageous to accept the challenge and gave it a miss. Years later in 2004, he became music director with director Teja’s Jai movie starring Navdeep.

He was roped in to score back ground music for Nenu Naa Rakshasi and Bollywood film, Bbuddah Hoga Tera Baap starring Amitabh Bachchan. Both these movies gave him the star status.

Later he followed the success with Poolarangadu, Ishq, Lovely and Gunde Jaari Gallanthayyindhe.
Akkineni family had bigger things to offer for him. He scored music for Naga Chaitanya’s Autonagar Surya and Akkineni Multistarer movie, Manam. While Autonagar Surya was an ordinary stuff, Manam ended up as the biggest hit of the year.
