In what is being hailed as one of the most anticipated cultural highlights of the 77th Republic Day celebrations, the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting (I&B) has confirmed a stellar collaboration to celebrate the spirit of Indian cinema. This year, the national capital will witness the magic of Shreya Ghoshal as she lends her “celestial” voice to a specially commissioned project under the creative vision of legendary filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali, set to the grand backdrop of the Republic Day tableau.
The I&B Ministry’s tableau for 2026, themed “Bharat Gatha,” aims to showcase the evolution of Indian storytelling and its cultural impact on the global stage. Breaking tradition, the ministry has roped in industry veterans to ensure the display is as much a treat for the ears as it is for the eyes.
While the tableau itself will depict the rich history of Indian films—from the silent era to the modern global blockbusters—the soul of the presentation lies in its music. Shreya Ghoshal has recorded a brand-new, soul-stirring track specifically for this event. Insiders suggest the song is a powerful anthem of unity and heritage, designed to resonate with the millions of Indians watching at Kartavya Path and across the world.
The collaboration marks another chapter in the iconic partnership between Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Shreya Ghoshal. Having started her career with Bhansali’s Devdas, Ghoshal’s involvement adds a layer of deep emotional resonance to the ministry’s vision.
“Music has always been the heartbeat of our films. To have Shreya Ghoshal bring this ‘Bharat Gatha’ to life is to ensure that the message of our cinema reaches every heart,” a senior official from the I&B Ministry stated during a press briefing.
Beyond the parade, the I&B Ministry is hosting a series of events where the musical contributions of Indian legends are being honored. While recent headlines have hummed with news of AR Rahman’s ongoing projects and compositions for the national stage, the focus this week remains firmly on the live cultural impact of these icons.
As the nation prepares for the “Full Dress Rehearsal” this weekend, the buzz around Ghoshal’s performance continues to grow. For fans of Indian music and cinema, this collaboration represents more than just a performance; it is a celebration of the country’s artistic soul on its most prestigious stage.
