GV Prakash records Raavan song for Nitesh Tiwari’s Ramayana
The Story in Brief
National Award-winning singer-composer GV Prakash Kumar has recorded a song for Yash’s character Raavan in Nitesh Tiwari’s Ramayana, one of the biggest Indian films ever made. Prakash Kumar told Bollywood Hungama that he got a call from composer AR Rahman after returning from Ayodhya following promotions for Nayyi Naveli.
Prakash Kumar said the composition required an approach beyond simply performing a song, describing it as having “a certain scale” and “almost elemental energy”. He added that Rahman’s musical vision was imagining the film’s soundscape on a “magnificent canvas” and that he wanted audiences to experience the song on the big screen. The film features Ranbir Kapoor, Sai Pallavi and Yash in key roles.
Indian Opinion Analysis
TrackTollywood’s short report treats the story as a news flash about GV Prakash getting a call from AR Rahman, leading with the surprise call and the visit to Ayodhya. Bollywood Hungama’s longer exclusive fleshes out the same facts but devotes far more space to GV Prakash’s own quotes on the scale, intensity and complexity of composing for Raavan’s character. The two sources agree on every concrete fact, and neither carries an ideological slant, making this uniform entertainment coverage. The different emphasis simply reflects TrackTollywood’s brief-news style versus Bollywood Hungama’s interview-driven approach. The story’s real weight lies in the singer’s invitation for audiences to experience the song in theatres, a release date the sources do not name.
