Your live singer in Ayodhya

Ayodhya is the city of the Ramayana, where Ram was born and ruled, and its temples, ghats on the Sarayu and the Hanuman Garhi fort have drawn pilgrims for centuries. In recent years the new Ram Mandir, the airport and the revived riverfront have made the city a major destination for devotees from across the country and abroad.

The music of Ayodhya is the music of Ram: the Ramcharitmanas of Tulsidas sung in Awadhi, the Hanuman Chalisa, Ram bhajans and the aarti on the Sarayu. Deepotsav on the eve of Diwali sets a record number of lamps alight on the riverbank, and Ram Navami in spring fills the city with kirtan and processions.

A singer who performs devotional music is welcome, and the city’s many dharamshalas, hotels and new facilities host group programmes. The area around the temple is tightly managed for security and crowds, so schedules, entry and equipment are planned with the organiser.

The year in Ayodhya

Ram Navami in March or April and Deepotsav in October or November are the greatest dates. The Sarayu bathing days of Kartik Purnima bring large crowds, and the winter months host group tours. The summer is hot, and the monsoon swells the river.

What Ayodhya hosts expect

The town is reverent. Programmes are devotional, language is respectful and the volume stays moderate. A singer who has Ram bhajans in the repertoire and who dresses simply fits the setting.

A Ram-centred programme

An Ayodhya evening is built on the Ramayana: Raghupati Raghav Raja Ram, Shri Ramchandra Kripalu Bhajmana, the Hanuman Chalisa and Sita Ram bhajans from Tulsidas. On Deepotsav night, a few gentle film songs such as Ram Siya Ram and Tera Ho Gaya can follow the aarti, but the first half hour is purely devotional.

Venues and planning in Ayodhya

Programmes in Ayodhya are held in hotels and new guest houses that have opened with the temple, in dharamshalas and ashrams, and on the riverfront along the Sarayu for devotional gatherings with the right permissions. Larger family receptions often take place in Lucknow or Faizabad’s halls.

Security and crowd management around the temple are strict, and the organiser arranges any permissions. Ram Navami and Deepotsav bring very large crowds. The band flies into Ayodhya or Lucknow and keeps programmes devotional, punctual and modest in volume.
