Nikhil Kalimireddy, known professionally as Kalmi, is an Indian music producer and DJ based in Hyderabad. He is perhaps best known for his song "Big Dawgs" with rapper Hanumankind. It entered the Billboard Canadian Hot 100 chart at #9 and has peaked on the Billboard Hot 100 at #23, marking an achievement for both artists.

Kalimireddy was born in Hyderabad and attended an engineering college.

Kalimireddy began taking music production seriously when he was in college, where he would start to engineer and produce tracks off of his mom's laptop. This, and a succession of his roommates with eclectic electronic music tastes opened him up to a world of new possibilities. They allowed him to draw on inspiration from pioneering artists like Flume and Odesza.
