Sanju Rathod's official YouTube channel "Sanju Rathod SR"
Sanju Rathod (also known as Sanju Rathod SR) is an Indian singer, lyricist, composer and rapper from Maharashtra. He is one of the most‑streamed independent artists in the Marathi music industry, known for blending traditional Maharashtrian folk styles with modern pop, hip‑hop and rap. His YouTube channel, launched on 13 February 2019, has grown to over 6.57 million subscribers and has accumulated more than 3.2 billion total views. Rathod writes, composes and sings almost all of his songs himself, often collaborating with producer Gaurav Rathod (G‑Spark) and featuring popular female vocalists and actors such as Isha Malviya, Sonali Sonawane, Prajakta Ghag, Yashika Jatav and Akriti Negi.
Rathod’s music covers a wide range of themes – from playful romance and heartbreak to energetic devotional anthems – and his lyrics frequently mix Marathi with Hindi and English. His “Bappa Wala Gana” series of Ganpati festival songs and romantic chartbusters like Gulabi Sadi, Shaky, Sundari and Kaali Bindi have each crossed hundreds of millions of views, making him a defining voice of contemporary Marathi pop.
Early career and breakthrough
Sanju Rathod uploaded his first song Ti Premat Majhya (वेडी) on 14 February 2019, a romantic rap that introduced his signature blend of simple storytelling and catchy beats. He followed it in the same year with the women‑empowerment tribute Naari Tujhe Roop and his first Ganpati devotional, Bappa Wala Gana, which quickly became a festive anthem. In early 2020, the song Dimple (Kas Dimple Yetay Galavari) went viral, firmly establishing Rathod as a rising star in Marathi music.
Throughout 2021 and 2022 he released a string of hits – Chhamiya (Breakup Anthem), Style Martay, Bappa Wala Gana 2, Karmat Nahi, Paaus, Mera Shambhu and Bappa Wala Gana 3 – that broadened his audience beyond Maharashtra. The devotional track Mera Shambhu and the rain‑soaked romantic song Paaus showcased his versatility in both Hindi and Marathi languages.
The years 2023 and 2024 marked a commercial peak. Nauvari, a love song celebrating the traditional nine‑yard saree, crossed 250 million views, and the effervescent Gulabi Sadi (गुलाबी साडी) became a nationwide sensation with over 547 million views. Later in 2024, Kaali Bindi and the sixth installment Bappa Wala Gana 6.0 continued the momentum, followed by the explosive Shaky (2025) and Sundari (2025), both of which generated hundreds of millions of views within weeks.
Musical style and themes
Rathod’s music is characterised by a fusion of Marathi folk (Koli, Banjara, Ahirani, Khandeshi, Agri) with contemporary pop, hip‑hop and rap elements. His songs often open with a memorable hook and maintain a light, danceable rhythm. He makes extensive use of Hinglish – Marathi lyrics interlaced with English and Hindi phrases – making his work accessible to a younger, pan‑Indian audience.
- Romance and flirtation – Playful romantic numbers such as Gulabi Sadi, Kaali Bindi, Sundari, Shaky and Bangles celebrate modern love with vivid imagery (gulabi sarees, black bindis, stylish walks) and upbeat production.
- Devotion and celebration – The “Bappa Wala Gana” series (seven editions as of 2025) blends bhakti with party energy, treating Lord Ganesha as a “superstar” and mixing traditional chants with pop arrangements.
- Heartbreak and resilience – Chhamiya (Breakup Anthem) and Karmat Nahi explore betrayal and emotional pain, while songs like Naari Tujhe Roop carry a strong social message of women’s dignity.
- Cultural pride – Tracks like Nauvari, Bulletwali, Bolo Jay Sevalal and Kaali Bindi highlight Maharashtrian traditions, attire and local dialects, resonating deeply with regional audiences.
