This Janmashtami, Universal Music India is all set to launch a divine Meera bhajan titled Mere Toh Giridhar Gopal sung and composed by the immensely popular and soulful Kavita Seth. This piece of beautiful music has been arranged by Debapito Saha with Fateh Ali Khan and Pankaj Nath on the Sitar and Flute respectively.

The melodious bhajan, which caters to everyone’s spiritual side, will be releasing worldwide on 22^nd August 2016. It delves into the metaphysical depths and talks about Meera’s devotion for Lord Krishna. Wandering around affectionately with her Krishna Murti, the bhajan encapsulates her devotion and love for her soulmate, Krishna. It reflects on the maxim that no matter which God you pray to, it is the belief in your prayers that allows you to chase your dreams and spread love and positivity all around.

Says Kavita Seth on the release of the song…“Mere Toh Giridhar Gopal” is a very famous bhajan of Meera.  Whenever I read or sing this song I feel the same devotion, pain, spirituality, concentration, what Meera went through.  In one line I would say it’s a “sampoorna” song to sing as a devotee”.

Kavita Seth has a unique voice and has always taken keen interest in the genre of Sufi which she believes to be the purest form of music. She has beautifully crafted a niche for herself in the genre and aims to take it to newer heights. Kavita's voice and heart touching compositions have paved her way into crème-de-la-crème of playback singing with smashing hits like “Iktara” (from the movie `Wake Up Sid’), “Tum Hi Ho Bandhu” (from the movie `Cocktail’) to the most recent "Jeete Hain Chal" (from the movie `Neerja’) amongst many other such successful film playback songs.

Kavita's voice has been appreciated by fans and critics universally, and over the years has won many awards, including Film Fare Award, IIFA Award, Stardust Award, Radio Mirchi Award, GIMA Award, Star Screen Awards and so on. She is an Empanelled Artist at ICCR (Indian Council For Cultural Relations) of Sufi Music.

Kavita Seth’s Mere Toh Giridhar Gopal is available across all digital platforms exclusively on Universal Music India.
