The song brings together striking landscapes, majestic palace settings and glimpses of the couple’s wedding, offering a look at the beauty and emotional depth of their relationship.
Featuring vocals by Arijit Singh and Shreya Ghoshal in Hindi, Abhay Jodhpurkar and Saindhavi in Tamil, Raghav Kaushik and Vaishali Samant in Telugu, Armaan Malik and Bela Shende in Kannada, and Naresh Iyer and Amritha Rajan in Malayalam, with music composed by A.

Beyond the scale of its settings, Mangal Rang also offers glimpses of the bond between Rama and Sita.

Speaking about composing the music for Namit Malhotra’s Ramayana and bringing the love story of Rama and Sita to life through Mangal Rang, A. R. Rahman says, “Ramayana is a story that has lived in the hearts of people for generations, and approaching it through music was a very special experience for me. There is a certain purity and tenderness in the relationship between Rama and Sita that I wanted the music to hold on to. With Mangal Rang, I hope listeners feel that warmth and devotion, and find something personal in the melody. Some stories don't need to be explained; they simply need to be felt.”
Speaking about lending his voice to Mangal Rang and being part of Namit Malhotra’s Ramayana, Arijit Singh says, Ramayana is not merely a story or an epic; it is a timeless reflection of life, our inner consciousness and the connection we share with everything around us. The melody of Mangal Rang, composed by A. R. Rahman sir, took me somewhere beyond words, into a space where love blossoms in its purest form. The sincerity and tenderness of the eternal relationship between Shri Ram and Mata Sita kept reminding me of the thread of love that connects us all, beyond everything that makes us seem different. Being part of this melody has been a deeply transformative experience, and I feel blessed to have been a part of a dream that Namit sir and his team are bringing to life. I hope this song reaches every listener with the same feeling of love, gratitude and devotion that I experienced while singing it.”
Speaking about singing for Mangal Rang and connecting with the love story of Rama and Sita in Namit Malhotra’s Ramayana, Shreya Ghoshal says, “What makes Rama and Sita's love so beautiful is that it goes beyond the happiness of being together. There is faith, understanding and a quiet strength in their bond that makes it deeply moving. Singing Mangal Rang allowed me to connect with that tenderness, and I approached it with a lot of love in my heart. Being part of a story that means so much to so many people is something I feel truly grateful for. I hope the song brings listeners a sense of warmth and peace, and lets them experience the beauty of Rama and Sita's relationship in their own way.”
Speaking about being part of the musical journey of Namit Malhotra’s Ramayana with Mangal Rang, Abhay Jodhpurkar says, “Ramayana is a story that has been a part of our lives and our cultural memory for generations. Being able to lend my voice to Mangal Rang was a deeply moving experience, especially because the song captures the love and togetherness between Rama and Sita. There is a certain sincerity in their relationship that makes it timeless, and I tried to bring that emotion into my singing. I feel grateful to be part of a musical offering that allows this beautiful story to reach audiences in Tamil as well.”
Speaking about the opportunity to be part of Ramayana through the Telugu version of Mangal Rang, Vaishali Samant says, “Being part of Mangal Rang has been a very special experience. Rama and Sita’s relationship carries so much love, trust and devotion, and there is a beautiful gentleness to the way their story unfolds in this song. I approached it with a lot of emotion, hoping to do justice to the feeling at its heart. To be able to share this story with Telugu-speaking audiences through music is something I feel very fortunate about.”
Reflecting on collaborating on Namit Malhotra’s Ramayana and lending his voice to the Kannada version of Mangal Rang, Armaan Malik says, “Ramayana is a story that transcends generations, and being part of its musical journey is something I feel deeply grateful for. Mangal Rang celebrates the love between Rama and Sita in a way that feels intimate and heartfelt. I wanted my singing to reflect that emotion and allow the melody to speak for itself. I hope the Kannada version connects with listeners in a personal way and brings them closer to the beauty of this timeless relationship.”
Talking about the emotional connection she found with Rama and Sita’s relationship while singing the Kannada version of Mangal Rang, Bela Shende says, “There is something incredibly moving about the love between Rama and Sita. It is rooted in trust, understanding and a bond that remains strong through every turn of their journey. Singing Mangal Rang gave me an opportunity to connect with that emotion, and I approached the song with a great deal of love and reverence. I hope the Kannada version brings listeners the same warmth and peace that I felt while singing it.”
Speaking about being part of the musical world of Namit Malhotra’s Ramayana and singing Mangal Rang in Malayalam, Naresh Iyer says, “Singing for Ramayana is a special responsibility because the story means so much to so many people. What I found beautiful about Mangal Rang is the way it celebrates Rama and Sita’s relationship through a melody that feels tender and timeless. I wanted to approach the song with honesty and let its emotion come through naturally. I hope the Malayalam version reaches people in a way that feels familiar, personal and close to their hearts.”
Dr Kumar Vishwas on penning the lyrics of Mangal Rang for Namit Malhotra’s Ramayana: I sat down several times to write a song celebrating the divine wedding of Shri Ram. Yet, every time I wrote a couple of lines and revisited them, I felt that the grandeur of the wedding of the ParamPita must have been a thousand times greater than anything I could express through my words. Eventually, when I found myself unable to feel satisfied with my own writing, I turned to Maa Saraswati in prayer. Whatever this composition has become, I believe it is her creation.
The bond between Shri Ram and Mata Sita transcends lifetimes; it can never be confined to a single Yuga. Shri Ram incarnated in the Suryavansh, while Mata Sita emerged from Mother Earth. The Sun symbolizes royal power and sovereignty, its radiance illuminating the Earth. The Earth, in turn, represents the power of agriculture and nourishment, receiving the Sun’s light and transforming it into food, greenery, and life itself. Their union, therefore, is not merely inevitable; it is fundamental to the very continuity of life.
The coming together of these celebrated artistes across five languages adds another musical dimension to the film, complementing the visuals and the emotional journey of Rama and Sita while allowing audiences across regions to experience the song in their own language. Bringing one of the world’s most revered epics to the big screen, Ramayana features Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Rama, Sai Pallavi as Sita, Rocking Star Yash as Ravana, Sunny Deol as Hanuman and Ravi Dubey as Lakshman.
