Marathi singer Vaishali Samant, who once ruled the charts with Aika Dajiba, is once again making waves with her latest song, Aaya Re Toofan from Chhaava. With its powerful composition by A.R. Rahman and evocative lyrics penned by Irshad Kamil and Kshitij Patwardhan, the song has struck a chord with listeners, amassing millions of views within hours of its release on YouTube.
The song is picturised on Vicky Kaushal, who plays Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj, and Rashmika Mandanna, who portrays Maharani Yesubai. As soon as the track begins with Vaishali’s resounding Aao Virajo, it sets the stage for an electrifying musical experience. Her soul-stirring voice adds a layer of depth and emotion that perfectly complements Rahman’s composition.
A highlight of the song is that Vaishali Samant shares the mic with the legendary A.R. Rahman himself. While Rahman’s magical voice has always captivated audiences, Vaishali’s powerful rendition elevates the song to new heights. Expressing her gratitude, Vaishali shared, “This song is a significant milestone in my musical journey. It is incredibly inspiring that A.R. Rahman sir believed in my voice. The overwhelming love the song is receiving is beyond words. Performing Live with Rahman sir at the audio launch was an unforgettable experience, and I sincerely thank both him and director Laxman Utekar for this opportunity.”
Since its release, Aaya Re Toofan has been trending across platforms, garnering immense appreciation from music lovers. The song not only reflects the valour and grandeur of Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj but also instills a deep sense of pride among listeners.
With her mesmerising voice and as the lyrics go, “Bhagve ki shaan mein chamka asmaan, aaya aaya aaya re toofan!”, this song is indeed a storm that has taken the world of music by force.
