Ramayana's music gets a skeptical hearing from Sham Sharma
A. R. Rahman's teased score becomes the most-watched new upload in a twelve-video week.

Kawali in Ramayan? 😡
Sham Sharma is excited about Ramayana, but the music is another matter. In "Kawali in Ramayan? 😡", he reacts to a teased passage from A. R. Rahman's score and questions whether its qawwali-style sound belongs in this adaptation.
The criticism is musical as well as cultural. Sharma argues that Rahman's work has lost some of its earlier magic, then makes a pointed concession: whatever his objections to Adipurush, its "Jai Shri Ram" had the impact he wanted. He also contrasts Chhaava's music with Ajay-Atul's work for a Shivaji project starring Riteish Deshmukh. His preference is clear: a score that feels stirring to him, rather than the direction he hears in this teaser.
The upload reached roughly 380,000 views, the largest audience among the week's twelve new videos, and is also attracting the most daily viewing in the catalog. In the comments, viewers bring their own reference points: Ramanand Sagar's television Ramayan, the animated Ramayana and music from Hanuman Ansh recur in the discussion.
Political commentary remained part of the mix. A separate upload examined reactions to Captain Smit Machchhar's aviation incident and criticized Rahul Gandhi's response. Across the channel, weekly viewing topped four million, although the current daily pace is below usual and the subscriber total fell by about 10,000. Nearby political-commentary channels had varied weeks too: Breaking Points and HasanAbi added subscribers, while Zeteo's total held steady.
For Sharma, the soundtrack discussion also connects with an established part of the channel: "HanuMan Vs Adipurush Teaser | Why Small Films Are Beating Bollywood!" remains among its most-watched regular videos.
