The closing act

At the heart of the trend-breaking and soulful Satyamev Jayate, Aamir Khan’s reality TV show that week on week took pertinent subjects that plague our society was Ram Sampath and Sona Mohapatra’s beautiful timeless music. The latter’s soulful voice and Ram’s incredible compositions left the audience emotional, charged-up and often misty-eyed. Rupaiya, Bekhauff Azad, Ghar Yaad Ata Hai Mujhey or Oh Ri Chiraiya, Sona’s powerful voice and the music connected deeply with the audience.

The musical duo will once again join hands to create a vibrant anthem for the closing ceremony of Khelo India’s first season of Khelo India University Games (KIUG). It will be held from February 22 to March 1, 2020, in Odisha. Sona says, “Ram and I get each other’s energies and creative space very well but over the last few years we have not had the chance of working together. This song is a special one for us. It took us back to a lot of memories of working closely for over a decade.”
