Saregama Films

Saregama Films is basically Bollywood royalty with a pedigree that goes back over a century. Originally founded as The Gramophone Company of India in 1901, it's literally the oldest music label on the continent and has its fingerprints all over Indian cinema's biggest moments—from recording Gauhar Jaan's groundbreaking track in 1902 to backing the sound for Alam Ara, the first talkie made in Bombay. After bouncing between ownership (including a long stint as EMI's Indian division under the HMV label), the company was acquired by the RP-Sanjiv Goenka Group in 1985 and rebranded as Saregama. Today, it's a massive multimedia powerhouse with a YouTube following of over 62 million subscribers and billions of views, proving that their legacy has only grown stronger. What makes Saregama special is how they've evolved while staying true to their roots—they're not just sitting on decades of classic recordings, they're actively creating new content through their film production arm Yoodlee Films and churning out multi-language television content that reaches audiences across India. Their contribution to Bollywood has been about preserving the music and stories that define Indian cinema while also pushing into the digital age with smart moves like the Carvaan digital player, which brings vintage Indian music to modern listeners. Recent work shows they're balancing nostalgia with innovation, diving into original productions that honor their heritage while capturing contemporary audiences. Listed on both the NSE and BSE with offices across India's major entertainment hubs, Saregama represents the meeting point where old-school Bollywood glamour meets modern streaming savvy.
