It was created and released during the Mahakumbh in Prayagraj on the Uttar Pradesh Government's official channel. The state government, along with Network18, commissioned the project from him.“It's beautiful that an album made at the largest spiritual gathering on Earth, in a city like Prayagraj, has made such a global impact.
