MUMBAI: After rendering several chartbusters in bollywood, Shekhar Ravjiani of the musical duo Vishal-Shekhar has made his debut in the Marathi music industry with his first single.
The track titled ‘Saazani’ composed and rendered by Ravjiani also features singer Bela Shinde. The single penned by National Award winning director Ravi Jadhav will be released digitally on Hungama next week.
Ravjiani said, “I am extremely fond of Marathi music. ‘Saazani’ is an independent and romantic track. It’s a metaphor for a farmer asking for rain to come. Maharashtra has always been special to me. Not just now, in the past too I have spent a lot of time in the state, especially Nashik. It was just that I was waiting for the right opportunity. It was not that difficult to sing in Marathi.”

The musical duo will also compose music for their first Marathi film titled ‘Balak-Palak’, directed by Jadhav.
