Bhagwa hai apni pehchaan, the stirring first song from the film Shatak, a celebration of 100 years of the Rashtriya Seva Sangh (RSS), was launched officially at a special event in Keshav Kunj, New Delhi, by RSS Sarsanghchalak, Shri Mohan Bhagwat. The launch marks a significant milestone in the journey of the film Shatak that seeks to chronicle the untold story of the RSS, its prominent leaders, and its contribution to Bharat (India)’s social, cultural and political fabric.
The song is a powerful invocation of Bhagwa, the saffron hue that has long symbolized sacrifice, discipline and spiritual strength in Bharat’s civilizational ethos. Bhagwa hai apni pehchaan sees the color not merely as a symbol, but as an identity rooted in values, service and collective consciousness. It calls for unity under the saffron flag, urging people to rise together, anchored in shared purpose and cultural pride.
Sung by Sukhwinder Singh, a singer long associated with passion and national fervor, the song emerges as RSS’s stirring musical tribute to discipline, collective spirit, patriotism and love for the motherland. Composed by Sunny Inder and penned by Rakesh Kumar Pal, its rousing rhythms and resolute lyrics echo conviction and unity.
Shri Bhagwat stated, “Dr. Hedgewar’s life embodied the RSS spirit—Bharat first, always. The movie Shatak and its song showcase his unwavering patriotism and strength. RSS isn’t changing; it is evolving, staying true to its roots. This film unveils untold stories, highlighting Dr. Hedgewar’s ability to unite people and handle life’s challenges with equanimity. My best wishes to the team for this impactful initiative.”
Sukhwinder Singh added, “I am overwhelmed to have Shri Mohan Bhagwat-ji launch my song. His presence is a blessing, and his vision inspires us. I loved the director’s vision—simplicity with impact. History should be cherished. This song isn’t just a professional opportunity; it is national service. I have poured my heart into it, hoping it will resonate with all. This song portrays the true spirit of Hindustan.”
Shatak traces the 100-year journey of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), from its founding in 1925 in Nagpur to its evolution into a nationwide voluntary movement. A concept by Anil D. Agarwal, the film is directed by Aashish Mall and produced by Vir Kapur, with Aashish Tiwari as co-producer. The film is presented by ADA 360 Degree LLP and is slated to release soon.
