Mumbai, Nov 10: Renowned singer Kavita Krishnamurti recently took a sentimental journey as she re-recorded the beloved ‘Luv Kush’ song from the acclaimed television series ‘Ramayan’, nearly four decades after its original release.
In a heartfelt post on Instagram, Kavita shared her joy about revisiting the song and reflected on her collaboration with the original composer, Ravindra Jain.
“Re-recording Luv Kush Ramayan was a delightful and nostalgic experience. It brought back fond memories of working with Ravindra Jain ji, who crafted the music so beautifully. This timeless piece will continue to resonate with audiences for generations,” she expressed.
Accompanying her post was a video where she conveyed the unique emotion of performing the song again after such a long time.
“Namaskar, I am Kavita Krishnamurti Subramaniam. Today, I am thrilled to sing the Luv Kush song from Ramayan, produced by Ramanand Sagar ji, after almost 38 years. Even back then, I felt blessed to sing this song, and I still feel the same,” she stated.
Ramanand Sagar's ‘Ramayan’ is celebrated as one of the most beloved mythological series in Indian television history, with its music and songs still cherished by audiences.
The series, which aired on DD National from 1987 to 1988, was created, written, and directed by Ramanand Sagar. The music was composed by Ravindra Jain, with narration by Ashok Kumar and Ramanand Sagar. Based on Valmiki's ‘Ramayana’ and Tulsidas' ‘Ramcharitmanas’, it marked a significant milestone in Indian television.
The show featured Arun Govil as Lord Ram, Deepika Chikhalia as Goddess Sita, and Sunil Lahri as Lakshman, whose performances became iconic and are still closely linked to Ramanand Sagar's ‘Ramayan’.
