From X Factor to Dhadak 2: Jubin & Shreya’s Musical Journey
What began with an audition blooms into a duet — Jubin & Shreya's emotional musical path

Sometimes, music is more than melody — it becomes a story of destiny, growth, and fulfillment. That’s exactly what unfolds in Dhadak 2's heartfelt new track ‘Bas Ek Dhadak’, which marks the first-ever duet between Jubin Nautiyal and Shreya Ghoshal.
Years ago, a young Jubin auditioned nervously for the reality show X Factor, where one of the judges, Shreya Ghoshal, recognized his potential. She praised the tone of his voice and encouraged him to nurture it. That moment stayed with him, shaping his musical journey from a budding talent to one of India’s most celebrated playback singers.
Today, that journey comes full circle.
Jubin and Shreya have teamed up for a soul-stirring duet that is more than just a collaboration — it’s a reflection of how dreams, when pursued with heart and dedication, can come true in the most poetic way.
Reflecting on the experience, Jubin shared, “I still remember standing nervously in front of all the judges during my X Factor audition — Shreya Ghoshal told me I had a beautiful timber voice and needed to work on it. That moment stayed with me through all these years. To now sing a duet with her is mesmerising. It’s more than just a song for me; it’s a reminder that dreams do come true.”
‘Bas Ek Dhadak’ is not only an emotionally rich composition but also a visual and vocal highlight of Dhadak 2. The chemistry between the two singers, combined with the song’s poignant melody, delivers a memorable listening experience that fans are already praising.
For Indian music lovers, this duet stands as a beautiful example of how paths cross again — with more meaning and magic. From an audition stage to a major film soundtrack, Jubin’s journey reminds us that with perseverance, mentorship, and passion, even the most distant dreams can become reality.
