Singer Sadhu Tiwari is set to perform the devotional song ‘Awadhiya Ke Raja’ at Ram Ki Paidi in Ayodhya, bringing the music of Nayyi Navelli to a location closely associated with the city’s religious and cultural heritage. The special event is expected to be attended by filmmaker Aanand L Rai and actor Yami Gautam Dhar as the team prepares for the film’s theatrical release on October 16, 2026.
The performance will place the film’s devotional track at the centre of its promotional activities in Ayodhya. With the city’s cultural significance providing the setting, the event is expected to connect the song’s spiritual themes with the film’s growing visibility ahead of its cinema debut.
Sadhu Tiwari to Bring ‘Awadhiya Ke Raja’ to Ram Ki Paidi
‘Awadhiya Ke Raja’ is part of the Nayyi Navelli music album. The original track features the vocals of Shreya Ghoshal, with lyrics by Vayu and music composed by G. V. Prakash Kumar. Sadhu Tiwari will perform the song live at Ram Ki Paidi as part of the special evening in Ayodhya.
The live rendition adds a musical dimension to the film’s promotional campaign. By bringing the track to Ayodhya, the event places the song within a setting that carries a distinct association with devotion, faith and the city’s cultural identity.
The performance also offers audiences an opportunity to experience the song outside the film’s soundtrack, with a live presentation ahead of the release. The event’s focus on a devotional number distinguishes it from conventional promotional appearances built around trailers, interviews and entertainment performances.
Yami Gautam Dhar and Aanand L Rai Expected in Ayodhya
Yami Gautam Dhar and filmmaker-producer Aanand L Rai are expected to attend the event alongside the Nayyi Navelli team. Their presence comes as the film enters the final stretch of its promotional campaign before reaching theatres.
For Yami, the film marks another lead role in a project that blends fantasy and family entertainment. Rai, meanwhile, is associated with the production through Colour Yellow, the banner behind the upcoming release.
The Ayodhya event adds a distinct cultural setting to the film’s promotional calendar. Alongside the film’s music and cast appearances, the performance of ‘Awadhiya Ke Raja’ is intended to draw attention to one of the album’s devotional tracks.
Nayyi Navelli Set for October 16 Theatrical Release
Presented by Amazon MGM Studios and Colour Yellow, Nayyi Navelli is scheduled to release in cinemas on October 16, 2026, during the Dussehra period. The film is directed by Balaji Mohan, with music composed by G. V. Prakash Kumar.
The story follows a seemingly ideal bride whose arrival brings happiness and harmony to a chaotic household in Meerut. However, the family dynamic changes when her brother-in-law begins to suspect that she may be hiding a supernatural secret.
With its mix of fantasy, humour and family drama, the film is positioned as a festive theatrical release. The Ayodhya performance of ‘Awadhiya Ke Raja’ adds another promotional moment ahead of its arrival in cinemas.
As Sadhu Tiwari prepares to perform the song at Ram Ki Paidi, the event brings together the film’s music, its team and a location with deep cultural associations. The performance is expected to be one of the final promotional activities before Nayyi Navelli reaches audiences on October 16.
