Akasa and Raftar release ‘Main Sherni

Ahead of the release of Sherni, an unconventional drama featuring Vidya Balan, Amazon Prime Video unveiled Main Sherni, a rip-roaring song that features some unique personalities alongside Vidya Balan.

Celebrating the stories of resilience, this special soundtrack is sung by Akasa and Raftaar. It salutes and applauds the courage of these Shernis, who have stood their ground, beaten the odds and have carved their niche by not conforming to the traditional. The music video stars Mira Erda (F4 Racer and Driver Coach), Natasha Noel (Body positivity influencer and Yoga trainer), EshnaKutty (A social media influencer and hula-hoop dancer) and TrinetraHaldar (One of the first transgender doctor in Karnataka), Jayshree Mane (a front line warrior at B.Y.L Nair Hospital), Riddhi Arya (A student who delivers food to frontline warriors), Anita Devi (Security Guard), Seema Duggal (Teacher), Archana Jadav (House Help) along with Vidya Balan. Penned by Raghav, Main Sherni is composed by Utkarsh Dhotekar.

Singer Akasa says, “I couldn’t be more proud to be a part of a song that celebrates women, and their strengths. With this soundtrack, we are hoping to awaken the inner shernis inside every woman around the world and motivate them to never give up, chase their dream and always keep working hard. Ive always been all about woman power and am truly honoured to be a part of Sherni and sing a song that will be remembered for a very long time. As always it was awesome working with Raftaar on this powerful track. The lyrics and melody truly spoke to me and I am sure that listeners will get to experience what the movie is all about through the song.”

Rapper Raftaar says,“This was an interesting project for me Sherni, there is such undeniable power in that one word, and to be able to showcase the vitality of that word in a song was a tall order!  I hope Akasa and I have managed to do that. I am really happy with how this passion project has panned out, as Akasa and I have invested our heart and soul into it.”

The special music video Main Sherni features the real-life Shernis from various walks of life along with the ace actress Vidya Balan, with the soundtrack sung by Raftaar and Akasa
