With Holi just a week away, the Bhojpuri music industry has gone into full festive mode. New Holi songs are dropping almost every day, but two names are clearly leading the race — Pawan Singh and Khesari Lal Yadav. While both superstars have released fresh tracks for the season, early numbers show Pawan Singh taking a strong lead.
Holi buzz lifts Bhojpuri music scene
As the festival of colours approaches, Bhojpuri playlists are filling up fast. From big names like Manoj Tiwari to rising artists such as Srishti Bharti and Anurag Tiwari, everyone is trying to grab attention with new Holi releases.
But among the many songs, two tracks have managed to create the most buzz online — Pawan Singh’s ‘Satrangi Salwarwa’ and Khesari Lal Yadav’s ‘Holi Baad Aake’. Fans of both stars are actively streaming and sharing the songs, turning it into an unofficial chart battle ahead of Holi 2026.

‘Satrangi Salwarwa’ gives Pawan Singh a big lead
Pawan Singh’s latest Holi track ‘Satrangi Salwarwa’ was released on February 20, 2026, on the T-Series Hamaar Bhojpuri YouTube channel. Within just five days, the song crossed 11 million views (1.1 crore), showing strong audience response.
At the time of writing, the track is trending at No. 4 on the music charts, making it one of the biggest Bhojpuri Holi hits of the season so far.
The song features vocals by Pawan Singh and Shivani Singh, with Mahima Singh appearing alongside him in the music video. Lyrics are written by Vivek Anmol, while music has been composed by Priyanshu Singh. The colourful visuals and festive vibe have helped the song gain rapid traction across YouTube and social media.
Khesari Lal Yadav’s ‘Holi Baad Aake’ still catching up
Khesari Lal Yadav also entered the Holi race with his song ‘Holi Baad Aake’, released on February 22, 2026, on the same T-Series Hamaar Bhojpuri channel.
The track has crossed 5 million views (over 52 lakh) within three days, which is impressive but still behind Pawan Singh’s numbers. Currently, it is trending at No. 7 on the music charts, indicating steady but slower growth.
Khesari has sung the song solo, and the music video features him alongside actress Raksha Gupta. Lyrics are penned by Abhishek Bhojpuriya, with music composed by Mulayam Yadav. The song’s playful Holi theme and energetic beats are getting good engagement, especially among Khesari’s core fanbase.
Fans turn it into a festive chart battle
Every Holi season brings a friendly rivalry between Bhojpuri superstars, and this year is no different. Fans of both Pawan Singh and Khesari Lal Yadav are actively promoting their favourite tracks on social media, pushing views and chart positions higher.
With several days still left before Holi, streaming numbers could change quickly. However, for now, Pawan Singh’s ‘Satrangi Salwarwa’ clearly holds the upper hand in terms of views, trending position and overall buzz.

What this means for Bhojpuri music in 2026
The strong response to these Holi songs once again highlights the growing digital reach of Bhojpuri music. YouTube trends, streaming numbers and social media engagement now play a major role in defining hits, especially during festive seasons.
As Google’s Search Generative Experience (SGE) and Discover feeds increasingly surface regional entertainment content, songs with strong early traction are likely to get even wider visibility. That makes the current chart race between Pawan Singh and Khesari Lal Yadav more important than ever for digital dominance.
With a week still to go before Holi, the numbers are only expected to rise. Whether Khesari’s track catches up or Pawan Singh continues his lead will be closely watched by fans across the Bhojpuri music scene.
