Vvaan’s devotional song Chhathi Maiya has won praise for bringing the faith, rituals and cultural spirit of Chhath Puja to Hindi cinema.
Tamannaah’s Chhathi Maiya Song From Vvaan Wins Fans’ Hearts
The makers of Vvaan have unveiled Chhathi Maiya, a devotional track featuring Tamannaah Bhatia and Sidharth Malhotra. The song has quickly connected with viewers, particularly audiences from Bihar, Uttar Pradesh and Jharkhand, where Chhath Puja holds deep cultural and spiritual significance.
Social media users praised the track for presenting the festival in a mainstream Hindi film while retaining its emotional connection to faith and tradition. Tamannaah’s expressions, traditional appearance and portrayal of a devotee emerged as major talking points, while Vishal Mishra’s soulful singing also received widespread appreciation. The 3-minute-and-30-second track is sung and composed by Vishal Mishra, with lyrics written by Kaushal Kishore. Veteran choreographer Chinni Prakash has designed the song’s movements and ceremonial sequences.
Chhathi Maiya Song Brings Chhath Puja to the Big Screen
The song begins with Sidharth Malhotra’s character questioning Tamannaah’s faith and her determination to participate in Chhath Puja. Tamannaah then joins other women in performing the rituals, with the visuals highlighting collective prayer, devotion and the emotional strength associated with the festival.
Chhathi Maiya also connects the religious celebration with Vvaan’s folklore-fantasy setting. The track links the worshipper’s faith to the mystical power of Van Devi, an important force within the film’s narrative.
A dramatic turn arrives when Tamannaah’s character meets with an accident. What follows is presented as a miraculous moment that transforms the couple’s understanding of faith. This combination of devotion, personal crisis and supernatural intervention gives the song a narrative purpose beyond being a standalone musical sequence.
Fans Praise Tamannaah Bhatia and Vishal Mishra
Several viewers described the song as emotional, spiritual and deeply soulful. Many said they were delighted to see Chhath Puja and the cultural identity of eastern India represented on a major cinematic platform.
Tamannaah received particular praise for communicating devotion through her expressions. Fans noted that her performance went beyond the traditional saree and jewellery, bringing sincerity and emotional depth to the character’s religious experience. Vishal Mishra’s vocals and composition were also highlighted as strengths. The melody maintains a devotional mood while remaining accessible to a mainstream film audience. Kaushal Kishore’s lyrics further reinforce the song’s themes of faith, gratitude and surrender.
Tamannaah described her participation in the song as an opportunity to celebrate the pride of Bihar and Patna. She said the team hoped viewers would experience the same sense of spirituality and devotion that they felt while creating it. Vishal Mishra called the song a humble offering to communities in Bihar, Uttar Pradesh and Jharkhand. He expressed hope that the traditions and cultural beauty associated with Chhath would reach audiences around the world.
