Abhijeet Ghoshal talks about his latest devotional mix, ‘Clubmix Hanuman Chalisa’
The singer, while in conversation with the Free Press Journal, talked about his latest religious track ‘Clubmix Hanuman Chalisa’ and shared that he felt people needed something like this. He shared during the interview that, “These days, in almost every interview and among most young people, there is a demand for club mixes. Everyone wants club mixes, even for devotional songs. So, I felt that our most traditional bhajans already have everything needed for a club mix. Be it Aigiri Nandini, Shiv Tandav Stotram, Hanuman Chalisa, Hanuman Ashtak (Bali Samay Ravi Bhakshi Liyo). These are the best club mixes already written thousands of years ago.”The song has a brand new take as it mixes the religious and thousand-year-old tunes with rap and club mix music. The singer further added that while this was a big challenge for him, he is glad he went through with it. “Creating something different from what we grew up listening to was a challenge, and I am very thankful to Lord Hanuman for making me capable of doing this,” he quipped.
Abhijeet Ghoshal says his clubmix is just as interesting as BTS or BLACKPINK music
Ghoshal even compared his latest religious track to songs like ‘Batameez Dil’, along with many Kpop sensations such as BTS and BLACKPINK. He talked about the rapping, and added that “You’ll realise that while it’s rap music, this particular rap is also very meaningful. At the same time, it’s incredibly difficult to take breathing breaks while singing it. As you gradually develop your skills, you’ll realise that it’s just as interesting as Badtameez Dil as interesting as Saari Night Besharmi Ki Height as interesting as BTS or Blackpink’s rap songs. To be honest, our Hanuman Chalisa Club Mix is even more interesting than all of them.”
