Prashant Pandey, the lyricist behind the song "Priyatama" from the Zee TV show Lakshmi Niwas, has expressed his gratitude and admiration for Sonu Nigam, who lent his voice to the track. Pandey believes that Nigam's rendition breathed new life into his words, elevating the song to a higher emotional plane.

Lakshmi Niwas is an upcoming family drama that captures the essence of middle-class India, portraying the dreams, responsibilities, and aspirations of a family hoping to own a home. The show revolves around Lakshmi (Manasi Joshi Roy) and Srinivas (Rajendra Chawla), a couple who have spent 35 years in a rented house, cherishing the dream of building their own home.

The title track "Lakshmi Niwas" and the romantic melody "Priyatama" encapsulate the themes of love, longing, and determination that define the characters' world. Nigam described singing for Lakshmi Niwas as a "truly delightful experience". He admitted that the composition was "something so heartfelt that it stays with you". According to Nigam, the title track is simple, pure, and emotionally honest, and he genuinely enjoyed singing it, along with "Priyatama". He felt that both songs were well-composed and carried so much sincerity that the joy of singing them naturally doubled. Nigam is happy that his voice could contribute to a story that celebrates family, relationships, and the dream of a home.

"Priyatama" is a Hindi song sung by Vikrant, Sonu Nigam, Soumee Sailsh, and Rahul Jain. Rahul Jain composed the music, and Vikrant wrote the lyrics. The song was released on December 17, 2025. The song compares the beloved's presence to Diwali's light and sandalwood's fragrance. One lyric notes that bees forget flowers upon seeing her, elevating her above nature. The lyrics also describe the desire to become the ink to write about the beloved and express the feeling that the world is out of tune without her, as she is his flute.

The collaboration between Prashant Pandey and Sonu Nigam on "Priyatama" has resulted in a song that resonates with sincerity and heartfelt emotion. Pandey's lyrics, combined with Nigam's soulful voice, create a memorable musical experience that enhances the narrative of Lakshmi Niwas.
