New Delhi: Vande Mataram, the national song of India composed by Bankim Chandra has seen many renditions over the period of time. AR Rahman’s version particularly still fresh in the memory of 90s kids as it became quite a rage at that time.

On the occasion of 74th Independence Day, a fresh version of the national song put together by as many as 100 musicians was released. Although the entire number is the repetition of the word ‘Vande Mataram’, you still enjoy the different ways in which it is sung depending on the artist be it Hariharan, Lalit Sen, Ismail Darbar, Shankar Ehsaan Loy , Malini Awasthi, Kailash Kher, Bappi Lahiri, Daler Mehendi, Shibani Kashyap, Hariprasad Chaurasia, Shantanu Moitra.

The song is conceived and composed by Aashish Rego with lyrics by Vipin Mishra and co-produced by Somesh Mathur and Justin-Uday Duo and Mr. Anil Wanvari is the executive producer of this video.

“The nation needs positivity and hope,” says Aashish Rego. “We have gone through some of the toughest times in a century. It was about a 115 years ago that Vande Mataram became a clarion call that rallied Indians in their fight against British rule. We hope our version will galvanise all Indians together to emerge as a new rapidly rising nation in the spirit of Creation, Collaboration, Contribution and Celebration. It is time to move ahead as collaborators and not competitors as all 100 of us have done, in this song, to create something greater than the individual.”
