New Delhi [India], August 14: “Ae mere desh ke logon… bhulo wo baatein purani…tum garv se sunao naye Bharat ki kahani… hum hai Bharatwasi…” — launched under the label RRAGa Duo, co-founded by Ashok Gupta, a fast-rising lyricist and author based in Los Angeles, USA, and Ritu Rawat, an accomplished singer, lyricist, and music composer rooted in Uttarakhand and currently based in Chandigarh, “Hum Hai Bharatwasi” is a heartfelt patriotic song penned by Ashok Gupta. It evokes memories of the timeless “Aye Mere Watan Ke Logo” penned by Kavi Pradeep.
“Hum Hai Bharatwasi” is a tribute by Ashok Gupta to Bharat and the people of Bharat. The soulful music direction and rendition by Ritu Rawat breathe life into the stirring lyrics.
Ashok Gupta, who retired after a successful 35-year corporate career, culminating in his role as Vice President and General Manager at Xerox Corporation, continues to stay deeply connected with his roots. Though settled in the US for over 53 years, Bharat remains alive in his heart.
“The song ‘Ae mere desh ke logon… bhulo wo baatein purani…tum garv se sunao naye Bharat ki kahani… hum hai Bharatwasi…’ is a true and passionate gift from me to my motherland – Bharat and its people,” says Mr. Ashok Gupta. “I truly wish that this labour of love finds a place in the hearts of every Bharatvasi.”
The song is dedicated to the Indian Armed Forces for their bravery and to our great scientists who made the Chandrayaan mission a resounding success. Both pillars of the nation — Defence and Science — are celebrated in this moving tribute.
Released on 10th August 2025, the song is perfectly suited for national occasions such as 15th August (Independence Day) and 26th January (Republic Day). It is already being loved by audiences and is streaming across all major platforms under the title “Hum Hain Bharatwasi.”
