AR Rahman’s Ramayana Song Wins Praise: Fans Apologise After Initial Criticism

AR Rahman’s latest song, Jodi Jodi, from the highly anticipated film Ramayana, has won over listeners across the country. Sung as a festive wedding track, the song has captured hearts with its rich cultural essence, grand arrangement, and soulful melody.

​The positive reception comes right after a wave of online criticism over the film’s previously released track, Ravana Tandav. Many fans felt that Rahman’s intense score for Ravana Tandav was too modern and missed the traditional, devotional feel expected from an epic like the Ramayana. However, the release of Jodi Jodi has completely flipped the public narrative.

​Fans who were previously disappointed are now openly praising the legendary composer on social media. Many have even posted formal apologies, admitting they were too quick to judge his work based on a single release. Listeners are calling Jodi Jodi a masterpiece and describing Rahman’s composition as “god-level stuff.” The track beautifully blends traditional classical elements with cinematic grandness, making it an instant favorite for festive occasions and weddings.

​This dramatic shift in response shows the deep love and trust audience members have in AR Rahman’s musical genius. With Jodi Jodi setting such a joyful and royal tone, anticipation for the film’s full album and soundtrack has skyrocketed. Rahman has once again proved that when it comes to creating unforgettable cinematic music, his art speaks for itself.
