Chandigarh : Renowned singer–songwriter and composer Ritu Sing officially launched her much-anticipated song “Sindoor” at the Chandigarh Press Club today, amid an inspiring gathering of media and music lovers. The song, which has already generated remarkable interest with its teaser crossing millions of views on social media, is now set to make a transformative impact with its soulful narrative and emotionally charged theme. Rooted in the real emotions surrounding Operation Sindoor, the track goes beyond the traditional symbolism of sindoor and delves into its deeper essence by representing faith, Shakti, dignity, courage, devotion, and the spirit of protection.
Speaking about the emotions behind the track, Ritu said, “I am feeling a sense of peace if I ask myself this. When Operation Sindoor was ongoing, I felt every emotion that the Pahalgam tragedy unfolded… maybe my DNA carries strong patriotic sense as my father, grandfather, uncles and my aunt, all have served the Indian defence forces. I felt every bit of trauma, pain that victim-women must’ve felt and a deep compassion filled me up which urged me to express all those emotions through this compelling narrative called Sindoor. I wrote Sindoor to connect at a personal level with those families and to salute Bharat’s spirit of compassion and warrior energy whenever the need arose. My feelings through Sindoor is my way of prayer for peace and Shakti that we all derive through this heart-to-heart connection.”
Critically acclaimed filmmaker Rahul Khan has directed the song. Praising Ritu Sings’ artistry and dedication, he said, “I had a truly wonderful experience working with Ritu Ma’am. She is not only an exceptional singer but also an outstanding actor. Her expressions and performance are simply remarkable. A truly multi-talented artist – singer, actor, lyricist, and music composer, she brings magic to everything she creates. Just last month, Ma’am released a beautiful devotional song dedicated to Mata Rani, and the moment you listen to it, you instantly feel a deep spiritual connection. The fact that she wrote the lyrics and sang it herself makes it even more special.”
The song’s music is produced by the celebrated Abhijit Vaghani, who has given the track a compelling spiritual and emotional soundscape. Director Rahul Khan has brought the vision to life with sensitive storytelling, impactful visuals, and a moving portrayal of Ritu as both a performer and narrator of the emotion behind Sindoor. The launch event in Chandigarh marked not just a musical release, but a powerful message, honouring women’s inner strength, sacrifice, and Shakti. The audience present praised the concept, music and the emotional depth of the video showcased at the event.
With Sindoor, Ritu Sings continues her artistic journey of merging devotion with poetic storytelling. She also announced her upcoming releases, “Mehendi” Sohum” and “Bandya”, which will further explore themes of life, celebration,spirituality, and inner awakening.
