Entrepreneur Nirvaan Birla Releases His Musical Debut with Soulful Track Shankaraa, a Tribute to Lord Shiva on Shravan
More than just a song, Shankaraa is a heartfelt offering to Lord Shiva. It combines soothing melodies with deep emotion, inviting listeners to pause, reflect, and reconnect. The composition is simple yet powerful, making it a comforting companion for anyone seeking moments of peace, whether through prayer, meditation, or quiet listening.
In today's fast-moving world, where the mind is often overwhelmed, Shankaraa reminds one of the healing power of sound. The track also touches upon the role of music in mental wellbeing, creating space for calm and emotional balance in everyday life.
Talking about his musical debut, Nirvaan Birla shared, "Music has always been my personal anchor, a quiet space I go to when things feel heavy. I've realised how deeply sound can impact mental wellbeing, especially when it's honest and rooted in something higher. Shankaraa came from that space of stillness and surrender." He further added, "It's my ode to Lord Shiva, a way of expressing devotion, gratitude, and the peace I feel in His presence. It's not just about Shiva; it's also about finding a little more peace within ourselves. This is the first song I'm putting out into the world, and I've poured my heart into it. I truly hope it reaches the right ears and touches people in the way it touched me while creating it." As the sacred month of Shravan unfolds, Shankaraa serves as both a spiritual and emotional release. The full track is now available on all major streaming platforms including Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, and JioSaavn.

Delhi Cabinet approves talent hunt scheme Hauslon Ki Udaan
New Delhi, Jul 29 (PTI) The Delhi Cabinet on Tuesday approved a new talent hunt scheme titled 'Hauslon Ki Udaan', which aims to identify and nurture talented youth across various creative fields, including singing, dancing and pottery. The scheme, which stars this September, was approved in a meeting chaired by Chief Minister Rekha Gupta. The chief minister said this is the first time such a platform will be given to the youth by the government. 'We want that the youth of the capital should get a platform to showcase their talent. We will connect the youth to employment opportunities. This is 'Sabki Dilli'," she was talking to the media at ITO crossing where she conducted an inspection after waterlogging was reported in the area. Earlier in the day, Delhi Tourism Minister Kapil Mishra said the government will launch the scheme 'Hauslon Ki Udaan' that will aim to identify talent with special focus on youth from unauthorised colonies and slum clusters. 'Under the scheme, talent hunt competitions will be organised across all the 70 assembly constituencies in Delhi following which selected youth will participate in zonal-level competition and then a state-level competition will be held," he told reporters after the Cabinet meeting. Mishra, the minister for Art and Culture, said this scheme will identify talented individuals in diverse fields such as singing, dancing, pottery, sculpture, visual art, digital art and theatre. 'The competitions will be held over a span of six months and the first event will kick off in September. Winners at the state-level will be awarded the CM cup along with prize money. We will rope in artists from different fields to mentor the winners of the competition," he added. The minister said Art and Culture will be the nodal department for this scheme and asserted this is probably the first time in India that such a scheme would be launched by the government. 'Such competitions are held by private organisations, but this is the first time in the country that the state government is holding such a competition," he added.

Sid Sriram announces his first multi-city India Tour in 2025
Bengaluru, Jul 29 (PTI) Sid Sriram, a genre-defying voice that has redefined South Indian music for a global audience, will embark on his first-ever commercial multi-city India tour this November and December. Sriram will be performing in Bengaluru (November 22), Chennai (November 29) and Hyderabad (December 13). The tour is presented by Fat Angel & Zomato District. 'These cities aren't just dots on a map. They're where I found my voice, fell in love with music, and experienced so many of my firsts. Every stage and every listener from these places has shaped the artist that I am today," Sriram is quoted as saying in a press release issued by the organisers. Sriram's work bridges cultures, languages, and musical traditions. Born in Chennai and raised in California, Sriram began training in Carnatic music at the age of three under the guidance of his mother, Latha Sriram. A graduate of Berklee College of Music in Boston with a major in Music Production and Engineering, his unique sound fuses classical Indian vocals with soul, R&B, indie, and electronic influences. He rose to fame in India with his playback debut in A R Rahman's 'Adiye' from Kadal (2013), and has since become one of the most sought-after voices in South Indian cinema. His hits include 'Adiga Adiga', 'Samajavaragamana', and 'Srivalli'. He has also carved a powerful path as an independent artist with albums like Entropy (2019) and Sidharth (2023), the latter created in collaboration with Ryan Olson of Bon Iver. The tour is a multi-lingual celebration, featuring Sriram's biggest hits across Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and Malayalam from his repertoire of 250-plus songs in arena-sized venues, added the press release. Tickets, priced from Rs 2,000 onwards, will be on sale from August 4.

Saiyaara song copied from One Direction track? Tanishk Bagchi reacts to plagiarism allegations
Filmmaker Mohit Suri's Saiyaara continues to soar, both at the box office and on global music charts. The film not only launched newcomers Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda but also delivered new romantic anthems for the audience. As per multiple reports, Saiyaara's title track has secured the fourth spot on Spotify's Top Global chart. Despite the song's growing popularity, many on the internet noticed how the track is allegedly resembling One Direction's hit Night Changes and even Jubin Nautiyal's Humnava Mere. Reacting to the plagiarism accusations, composer Tanishk Bagchi finally broke his silence in a recent interview. When asked about the plagiarism accusations, Tanishk told India Today, 'Whatever I do, people will have something to say because they don't have [anything better to do]. They keep on looking for opportunities to put me down. But ultimately, the song will go wherever it's destined to, and that's what's happening with Saiyaara too. As for the comparisons, if you look at the melody, the chords are the same. The A minor scale has just about 3–4 chords, but every melody has a different soul. That doesn't mean anything was stolen.' He further asserted that the song is not copied from any track. 'Even if you can do that, it's really difficult to make it a hit. All said and done, we didn't steal anything. The similarities are fine, it can happen, but it's not like we did it on purpose. Idhar se utha ke udhar nahi kiya (We didn't pick something from there and add it here). We worked on the emotion of the song, and that worked. That's the magic of Saiyaara," he added. Tanishk rose to fame as part of the Tanishk-Vayu duo with hits like Banno (from Tanu Weds Manu Returns) under their belt. He later shifted to solo compositions with originals like Bolna and chart-topping remixes such as The Humma Song, Aankh Marey, and Dilbar. He is popularly known as Bollywood's 'remix king.' Saiyaara's music has been the highlight of the film. It is helmed by YRF.
