Origins
Eight years after its last season aired on MTV India, Coke Studio returned to the Indian music scene in February 2023. Spearheaded by Coca-Cola India, this revival was named Coke Studio Bharat. The reintroduction hinted at a shift towards celebrating India's diverse musical heritage. Coke Studio Bharat aimed to contemporize the show by facilitating fresh collaborations among various artists. Unlike its previous partnership with MTV India, this edition focused exclusively on digital platforms, with individual songs released instead of full episodes. Despite these format changes, Coke Studio Bharat stayed true to the show's essence—showcasing unique artist pairings accompanied by a house band and additional musicians.
