Bhojpuri beats: Singers who rock the Bihar polls

NEW DELHI: As Bihar buzzes with election fervour, the real rhythm comes from Bhojpuri folk songs - catchy numbers that pull crowds and swing votes. Both NDA and Mahagathbandhan are using music to amplify their campaigns.

MP Manoj Tiwari's new hit, "Han ham Bihari hai ji, thode sanskari hai ji," celebrates Bihari pride while poking fun at stereotypes. Singer-actor Pawan Singh, back in BJP after his expulsion for rebelling in 2024 polls, is wooing voters with "Jodi Modi aur Nitish ke Hit Hoi."


Former Lok Sabha MP from Azamgarh Dinesh Lal Yadav 'Nirahua' and BJP's Gorakhpur MP and actor Ravi Kishan add star power with their crowd-pulling songs.

For Mahagathbandhan, Khesari Lal Yadav leads the charge with "Bihar ke laal, ab utho jaago," while Maithili Thakur, BJP's nominee from Alinagar, joins NDA's musical campaign.
