Their soulful debut, featuring performances in multiple regional languages, was headlined by the premiere of 'Sounds of Bharath', a signature track composed by Padma Shri Ricky Kej. The event was graced by dignitaries including Ashwathnarayan, V. Harikrishna, R. P. Patnaik, Subu Kota, and others from politics, cinema, and music. 'Their voices are divine,' said R P Patnaik.
