Mumbai’s music scene is buzzing with the latest devotional track ‘Shambhu Re’ by Amruta Fadnavis, the talented playback singer and wife of Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis. The song, released just days ago, has already crossed 900,000 views, captivating audiences with its soulful rendition of Lord Shiva’s glory.
In an exclusive conversation, Amruta opened up about her musical journey and firmly addressed rumors of her acting debut. When asked if she ever considered stepping into films, given her close ties to the entertainment world, she revealed, ‘Film offers have come my way multiple times, but I’ve politely turned them down each time. Life has a path for everyone, and acting isn’t mine. Music is my first and last love – it’s the art that comes naturally to me, allowing me to express myself fully. I want to stay true to what I’m genuinely passionate about, and that’s music.’
Amruta’s dedication to her craft is unwavering. ‘Music is like breathing for me,’ she shared. ‘Just as one can’t live without air, I feel incomplete without it. Be it late nights or peaceful mornings, I practice classical music whenever I can. Riyaaz and the pursuit of melody are integral to my daily routine.’
‘ Shambhu Re,’ a heartfelt bhajan composed by Moti Sharma with lyrics by Srijan Vinay Vaishnav, was directed by Rajeev Walia. Shot across 27 sacred Shiva temples, the video adds a visual depth to the devotional fervor. Amruta’s powerful vocals have struck a chord, making it a viral sensation in no time.
As she continues to enchant listeners, Amruta Fadnavis proves that true artistry lies in following one’s heart, staying loyal to the notes that define her soul.
