On the occasion of Zee Studios' upcoming film Har Har Mahadev, many things are happening for the first time in the history of Marathi cinema. Many new experiments have been done in this film in terms of music as well. One of the important attractions of this experiment is the song 'Wah Re Shiva'. Sung by Sid Sriram who is very popular in South cinema, this song is graced with powerful music by Hitesh Modak and equally powerful lyrics by Mangesh Kangane. Through this song he has described the qualities and prowess of Chhatrapati Shiv Raya. The song has a special touch due to Sid Sriram who has a very distinctive voice. Even the difficult words in the song are pronounced by him so fluently that the southern influence on his language is not felt anywhere. This song will be available on social media and all popular music platforms from today.
Through the film Har Har Mahadev, the history of Chhatrapati Shivarai will be seen on the silver screen in a very grand and divine form. Every effort is being made by the team of this film to have the same grandeur and a different look. This difference is going to be felt in the matter of music. Every song in the film and even the background music (background score) were put into special effort. One of the important songs will be Wah Re Shiva. Talking about this song, lyricist Mangesh Kangane said, “There have been millions of songs describing Chhatrapati Shivarai. Therefore, it is actually a challenge to present what is new in the songs made on them. But even if the name Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj comes to the lips, the words are automatically suggested. The same has happened with this song.
"When there is a Sultanate crisis in Maharashtra, there is a feeling that the image of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, who stood firmly against it and challenged the Sultanate and protected the Marathi people, should be seen as bigger than God. Mangesh Kangane also opined that he tried to convey the same feeling in this song. Combining traditional and modern instruments, Hitesh Modak has given this song a new energizing music.
Everyone has heard the well-known song Srivalli from the movie Pushpa, which has created a new record of popularity this year. This original southern song is sung by popular singer Sid Sriram. Which has got crores of views on social media. Not only this song but Sid Sriram's every song is getting crores of views in the same way. It is a special thing that this singer, who is a huge craze among the youth today and who is gaining fame at the national and international level, is making his debut in Marathi. Hitesh Modak, the music composer of the film expressed his belief that this song will be a hit like other songs of Sid Sriram.
