This weekend, Sony Entertainment Television’s Indian Idol 15 is set to celebrate the timeless legacy of legendary composer duo Shankar-Jaikishan with an unforgettable musical tribute. Adding to the excitement, esteemed guests Shabana Azmi, Anjali Anand, Shalini Pandey, Manoj Muntashir, and Nitin Mukesh will join the celebration, sharing insights and cherished memories of the iconic music maestros. Ragini Shinde makes the episode extra special by delivering breathtaking renditions of ‘Unse Milli Nazar Ke Mere Hosh Ud Gaye’ and ‘Parde Mein Rahne Do’, leaving everyone spellbound. What truly moved everyone was the arrival of Shailja, a fan of Ragini who messaged her on social media. Bursting with emotion, Shailja said, “Being here feels amazing! I am a huge fan of Ragini—her voice has a magical quality that makes me feel like I’ve been given a bonus life. I am a widow with no family, so I live in an orphanage. I am also on dialysis, and for the past year, I have had a leg injury that hasn’t healed. The orphanage beds are as hard as rock, making it difficult to sleep. But ever since I started listening to Ragini, my nights have become peaceful. Talking about Ragini, she adds, “Because of her, I feel like I’ve been given a second life, and today, I got the chance to meet all of you—something I never even dreamed of.”
Moved by her words, Ragini dedicated her performance to Shalja, pouring her heart into every note. It was a powerful reminder of music’s ability to heal, inspire, and bring light into the darkest moments. Shreya Ghoshal, deeply touched by the moment, praised the heartfelt connection between Ragini and her fan. She expressed, “I felt so happy seeing you, and the story you shared today is truly inspiring. As we sing on this stage, we often don’t realize how many hearts we are touching, how many lives we are impacting. The bond you have formed with Ragini is incredibly special. Her songs may have brought healing to your life, but for Ragini, having you here today, receiving your love and blessings, is a priceless gift—for her and for all of us.”
