As the festive spirit of Janmashtami begins to take over, singers Sumeet Tappoo and Priyanka Barve have joined forces for a soulful new devotional track titled Radhe Krishna. Released under the banner of Times Music Spiritual on August 30, 2026, the song is crafted to evoke a sense of grandeur and divine love. The track stands out for its rich orchestral arrangement, which highlights a sweeping violin symphony designed to transport listeners into a world of spiritual imagination.
The project boasts an impressive team of creative talent, with music composed by Mayuresh Pai and lyrics written by the duo of Shekhar Astitwa and Bhoomika Jain. The intricate soundscape was arranged and produced by Shubham Saurabh, featuring the melodic flute work of Kiran Vinkar and rhythmic support from tabla and dholak players Lalit Shankar and Surender Belbansi. The track is further elevated by the Mumbai Strings Section and a harmonious chorus featuring Anurag Puranik, Anurag Patil, Surabhi Khekale, and Anamika Wakhare.
Technical precision was at the heart of the production, with recording handled by Anand Dabre, Bhavesh Liya, Krutarth Kale, and Parth Dubey across LM Studio and Soulful Melody Studio. The final mix was polished by Anand Dabre, while the mastering was expertly completed by Gethin John at Mastering World UK. The accompanying music video, helmed by directors Pratham Chourasiya and Nayan Pachori, brings the vision to life with the support of creative heads Geetesh Yadav and Parth Dubey, and colourist Kundan Sad.
Composer Mayuresh Pai shared that the bhajan is inspired by the eternal bond between Radha and Krishna, with the team hoping it brings peace and positivity to all who listen. Sumeet Tappoo and Priyanka Barve also expressed their deep gratitude to the entire production crew for their dedication. This release perfectly times with the upcoming festivities, including the Krishna Janmashtami celebrations at Prem Mandir Vrindavan on September 4, 2026, and the upcoming Radha Ashtami on September 19, 2026.
