With over 3 million views on YouTube since its release on December 15, 2024, “Nungshinabana Maruni” isn’t just a song — it’s a full-blown Meitei-language cinematic experience that pulses with the emotional rhythm of love, longing, and lush traditional charm.

Proudly presented by Jaya Jaya Radhe Films, this Maniwood/Kangleiwood production is another stunning jewel in the ever-evolving crown of Manipuri language music.

The Voices That Stirred Millions

The duet by Jeson Gurumayum and the graceful Pushparani brings a soulful masculine-feminine harmony that feels timeless, tender, and powerful. Their voices echo not just across Manipur, but also among Meitei-speaking diaspora hearts in Montreal, Toronto, New York, London, Sydney, Seoul, and throughout South Asia — in Assam, Tripura, Sylhet Division of Bangladesh, and even parts of Myanmar where Meitei communities have planted deep cultural roots.

Debut With a Bang: Meet Thoiba RK!

Marking his on-screen debut, Thoiba RK brings fresh jhatka energy alongside the beloved and charismatic Dolly Gurumayum, whose expressive performance elevates the romantic drama to Maniwood masala levels. Their chemistry captures the tension and tenderness of young love in all its layered glory.

Team Behind the Magic

Music by Tony Aheibam weaves folk textures into modern sonic palettes — a bridge between generations and geographies.

Lyrics by Devita Urikhinbam tap into the poetic heart of Manipuri romantic traditions, laced with sincerity and sharp emotion.

Cinematography by Regan KH frames every glance and gesture with lush visuals that spotlight the natural beauty of the land and its people.

A shoutout to the stylish yet grounded work of Maxwell Yangoijam (costumes), and the glam team — Napoleon Top & Malem Top (makeup/hair), lit to perfection by Brojen & Kangla.

Directed & Edited by Jeson G – A Multi-Talent in Motion

Jeson G not only sings but also directs and edits the video, proving himself a powerhouse creative force. The video is tightly edited with visual storytelling that hooks viewers from the first frame to the last jhatka.

A Love Song That Travels

Whether you’re watching from Shillong, Aizawl, Itanagar, Dispur, or dancing to it in a Montreal basement party or a Seoul rooftop hangout, this song resonates with connected cultures: Assamese, Bengali, Dimasa, Bodo, Mizo, Khasi, Garo, Jaintia, Naga, Nepali, Thai, Burmese, Shan, Sylheti, and Tripuri youth — all feel a pulse of familiarity in the melody.

“Nungshinabana Maruni” isn’t just about two lovers. It’s about a people, a culture, and a language — Meitei/Manipuri — that continues to sing, dance, and dream across borders. Watch it here: Nungshinabana Maruni – Official Music Video
