In a candid interview after his victory on ‘India’s Raw Star,’ Rituraj Mohanty shared his arduous journey. He recalled the challenging days when he would create demos and tirelessly strive to get his voice heard. Homeless and determined, he would sleep at the train station, seeking refuge from the rain under the kind souls who offered him shelter. During this trying period, Rituraj met Surendra Bachan, a music director for Punjabi films, who provided invaluable guidance and encouragement. Bachan’s words of wisdom resonated deeply with Rituraj, motivating him to persevere and pursue his dreams relentlessly.

Rituraj Mohanty has showcased his versatility by singing in multiple languages, including Bhojpuri, Gujarati, Marathi, Rajasthani, and Odiya. However, Sufi music holds a special place in his heart, as it serves as a direct connection to the Divine. The essence and spirituality of Sufi music resonate deeply within him, enabling him to establish a profound connection with God.
