Join NowKhesari Lal Yadav: As the air across India and within diaspora communities in the USA and the UK becomes electric with festive anticipation, the countdown to Shardiya Navratri has officially begun. With the nine-night festival commencing on September 22, 2025, homes are being readied, and hearts are filling with devotion. This sacred period, marked by fasting, prayer, and vibrant Garba and Dandiya celebrations, is incomplete without the soul-stirring sound of devotional music. Capturing this very essence, Bhojpuri singing superstar Khesari Lal Yadav has delivered a spiritual masterpiece, dropping his brand-new Navratri Devi Geet, “Mai Maharani Aa Gaili,” and it’s already taking the internet by storm.
The Arrival of the Queen Mother: A Divine Musical Celebration
Released on September 17, just days before the festival’s start, “Mai Maharani Aa Gaili” (which translates to “My Queen Mother Has Arrived”) is the perfect anthem to welcome Goddess Durga. Dropped on the GMJ- Global Music Junction- Bhojpuri YouTube channel, the song has instantly struck a chord with devotees, amassing lakhs of views in a remarkably short time.
The music video is a visual and spiritual treat. It features the charismatic Khesari Lal Yadav alongside the talented Nisha Pandey, both completely immersed in devotional fervor. The video beautifully captures the moment of pure joy and excitement when Khesari first lays his eyes on the magnificent pandal and the divine idol of the Goddess. Overjoyed, he runs to share the incredible news with everyone, his voice echoing the song’s powerful hook: “Mai Maharani aa gaili mere gaon mein” (My Queen Mother has arrived in my village). The visuals are interspersed with stunning glimpses of Maa Durga in her various forms, creating an atmosphere of pure devotion that will give you goosebumps.
The Powerhouse Team Behind the Devotional Hit
A song this impactful is the result of a brilliant collaboration. While Khesari Lal Yadav has lent his powerful and emotive voice, the soul-touching lyrics have been penned by the gifted Krishna Bedardi. The music, a perfect blend of traditional devotion and modern beats, has been directed by Rajnish Raja. The track was masterfully composed by KRK Yadav and beautifully choreographed by Kuldeep, bringing the spiritual narrative to life on screen.
An Outpouring of Love: Fans Declare It a Masterpiece
The comment section of the YouTube video is a testament to the song’s immediate and profound impact. Devotees and music lovers from around the world are showering praise on Khesari and the team. One user wrote, “This is such a beautiful bhajan,” while another commented, “Listening to this beautiful and mesmerizing bhajan filled my heart with joy.”
For anyone searching for the perfect new Bhojpuri bhajan to add to their Navratri 2025 playlist, this song is an absolute must-have. It follows a series of other successful devotional releases from Khesari, including the popular Durga Puja geet, “Tuhi Hawa Pani Baru Ho.”
As families in India, the USA, and the UK prepare to celebrate the victory of good over evil, “Mai Maharani Aa Gaili” is poised to be the soundtrack of their joy, devotion, and spirited celebrations, echoing in pandals and homes throughout the nine divine nights.
