The unveiled logo itself is a powerful representation of this vision. It features the Tanpura, symbolising the common thread that links the two forms of classical music, while also embodying the unity of India’s musical heritage. The design incorporates the world map, reinforcing the award’s objective to inspire the younger generation to build a strong foundation in music and represent India globally. The logo is a result of a creative collaboration led by AR Rahman, with contributions from artists Sruthi Veer, Medha Srivastava, Shakthisree Gopalan, KannikaUrs, and international artist Leonard Pauli.
