I started reciting the Hanuman Chalisa back in 2010-11 when an astrologer suggested I read it, though I wasn’t regular with it and had definitely not started listening to it either.. Fast forward to 2024, I started chanting regularly due to some incidents, and in the beginning, I would only listen to Rasraj ji’s Lo-fi version:
Slowly, after a couple of incidents, I discovered Krishna Das and soon became drawn to his voice. Before I knew it, his rendition titled as the “4AM Chalisa” became my daily tonic:
I was so convinced that nothing could come close to this. And I had even heard the one I am about to share just now. It had not impacted me as much when I had heard it before, but last night, I just couldn’t stop swaying to it and listened to it on loop. The devotion in this rendition moved me so much!
So these are my top Hanuman Chalisa versions. What is your favourite version / rendition of the Chalisa? 🙂 Do share!
