# Chinmayi Sripaada learnt Ramayana song Judi Jodi in an hour 2026-11-08T16:56:10+00:00 | Entertainment | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 4 independent outlets (5 source reports) Singer Chinmayi Sripaada has revealed she had just about an hour to learn the wedding song 'Judi Jodi' from Nitesh Tiwari's 'Ramayana: Part 1' before performing it live at the film's audio launch in Chennai in October. Her rendition sparked a debate comparing it to Shreya Ghoshal's studio-recorded Hindi version, which is used in the film. The Times of India and ABP Live reported the online discussion, while Hindustan Times noted fans appreciated her performance. In a post on X on 7 November 2026, Sripaada said she welcomed the challenge of preparing at short notice, adding that she is her own harshest critic and struggles with imposter syndrome despite 25 years of experience. She said improvisation requires time to become familiar with a song. 'Ramayana: Part 1', starring Ranbir Kapoor and Sai Pallavi, was released worldwide on 5 November 2026, with the second part planned for Diwali 2028. ## Indian Opinion Analysis All four outlets report the same facts from Chinmayi Sripaada's social media post, the audio launch date, and the film's release details, making this uniform straight reporting. Hindustan Times and The Times of India add context about the online debate comparing Sripaada's live version to Shreya Ghoshal's studio recording and note that Sripaada previously performed a last-minute song at a 'Thug Life' event in 2025.
