Recording Begins: Yohani Ventures into Telugu with “What’s Happening”

A new language, a new rhythm—Yohani records her first Telugu track “What’s Happening” for Ravi Teja’s Dhamaka.

Inside Yash Raj Studios, Yohani records her first Telugu language track for Ravi Teja’s Dhamaka, collaborating with Bheems Ceciroleo and lyricist Rama Jogaiah Sastry.

Yohani steps into new linguistic and creative territory today as she begins recording “What’s Happening,” her first ever Telugu track. The session takes place inside the iconic Yash Raj Studios, marking a milestone moment as she enters the world of Telugu cinema for the upcoming Ravi Teja film, Dhamaka.

Working alongside composer Bheems Ceciroleo, Yohani navigates the rhythmic challenges and melodic nuances of Telugu pop with curiosity and focus. The session moves between vocal takes, phrasing adjustments, and collaborative experimentation as she adapts her style to a sound that carries its own cultural cadence.

Lyricist Rama Jogaiah Sastry guides the linguistic and expressive detail of the track, ensuring each line holds the clarity and emotion needed for a Telugu film song. Yohani approaches the new language with care, leaning into pronunciation coaching and melodic shaping to find a balance between her familiar tone and the expectations of the genre.

The environment at Yash Raj Studios is both high pressure and energizing. Engineers, writers, and producers move with precision, creating a space where Yohani can explore freely while contributing to a film soundtrack designed for wide commercial appeal.

Today’s session marks more than a recording. It represents Yohani’s entry into yet another regional industry and her willingness to expand her artistry through new languages, new sounds, and new audiences.

A studio. A new language. A fresh chapter.

A step into Telugu music that signals her growing cross regional presence.
