IIT Bombay alumnus, Mr. Kiran Pradhan, alongwith Mr. Pravin Gupta from IIT Kanpur (1968), and Mr. Vinod Rajput from IIT Kharagpur (1968), joined forces to create a musical composition. Expressing a deep connection to their motherland, these three IIT alumni now settled in Sydney, Australia, collaborated on a song that encapsulates India’s rich culture, traditions, and age-old way of life. Mr. Pradhan said, “These qualities that bound our nation together are now rising like a phoenix from the ashes.”
While Mr. Gupta penned the beautiful lyrics, Mr. Rajput lent his vocals, and Mr. Pradhan composed and arranged the music. The entire production was carried out in Mr. Pradhan’s Sydney studio, with the assistance of a videographer to create a visually appealing video.
This heartfelt creation, titled “Resurging India” was released on January 24, 2024, as a dedication to their beloved India. The following video encapsulates the culmination of their artistic collaboration celebrating Indian culture, IIT Bombay, Republic Day, and Independence Day.
