Proud moment: Kratex on Taambdi Chaamdi playing at Berlin pride event
Kratex, and a still from the video of Taambdi Chaamdi Complete with catchy lyrics, a snappy tune and an out-of-the-box video, Krunal Ghorpade, better known by his stage name Kratex, and Shreyas Sagvekar's trippy Marathi track Taambdi Chaamdi became an instant hit when it released. A year later, the 'Lakalakalakalaka' vibes refuse to die down. The latest addition to the list of places that Taambdi Chaamdi was played at now includes a recent Pride Parade in Germany. A video shared by Sarvesh Joshi on Instagram shows the song being played on a loudspeaker at the CSD Pride Parade in Berlin, and people grooving to it. Sharing his first reaction to the video, Kratex tells us, "Someone tagged me in the video. At first I thought this was at some place in India. But the fact that our song was played at a Pride Parade abroad is a proud feeling. It just cements my belief that music has no language or barriers. " Shreyas Sagvekar and Manish Shetye in a still from Taambdi Chaamdi Kratex, who has been vocal about Marathi music being played at clubs, tells us that post the success of the song, he has seen a change in approach towards Marathi songs. "The club scene has repeatedly seen Marathi songs being played, something that was not the case until a couple of years ago," he says. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like My Brows Look Fuller Looking Now [See Results] NULASTIN Learn More Undo Even for him as a creator, things have changed. "Taambdi Chaamdi made it easier for me to tell people what kind of music I make. It also opened many doors for me," adds Kratex, who composed The Phoogdi Song for Housefull 5 with Tanishk Bagchi recently. While he has done a couple of film songs in the last year, including the title track of the Marathi film Zapuk Zupuk, the young composer-DJ says he is not chasing the 'Bollywood dream'. "Film music comes with its set of limitations. Songs have to be composed as per the situation and in a specific way. I am happier composing independent songs. If a song that fits my style comes to me, I'll do it. But I am not chasing film songs," shares Kratex. WATCH: Taambdi Chaamdi Kratex, Shreyas - Taambdi Chaamdi (Official Music Video)
