Through Bhansali Music, the director aims to collaborate with talented musicians and artists to create captivating compositions for both his films and independent albums. Expressing his passion for music, Bhansali stated, "Music brings me great joy and peace. It’s an integral part of my being. I am now launching my own music label Bhansali Music. I wish the audience to experience the same joy and spiritual connect that I feel when I listen to or create music."
Renowned for his grand storytelling in Bollywood, Bhansali has often taken on the role of music composer for his projects. Songs like Meri Jaan from Gangubai Kathiawadi and Ghoomar from Padmavaat showcase his expertise in blending traditional Indian music with his cinematic narratives.
