Bhajans are popular in Nepal, but the industry hasn’t been commercialised

Go on a morning tour, you can hear bhajans (Hindu and Buddhist religious hymns) and devotional songs everywhere. Not only around the temples but bhajans have also been making the ambience of homes musical. Playing and singing bhajans are also considered mandatory in any religious activities, ceremonies, and worship. Further, most radios and televisions in Nepal also start their mornings by playing bhajan music.

Gayatri Mantra and Saraswati Vandana among others can be considered evergreen bhajans in Nepal. All these showcase the market of bhajans is exciting in Nepal. Additionally, in this holy month of Shrawan, Nepali society listens to and consumes more devotional songs and music.
