Prince Mulla: Bollywood Meets Faith in India! 🕊️🎹

Prince Mulla is a Christ follower working in the Bollywood movie industry as a producer and musician. From leading 500,000 in worship to crafting Bollywood hits, Prince shares his journey as a pastor’s son, navigating faith in a 1.4 Billion people nation where conversion is illegal. Hear stories of his viral song “Zinda” impacting Pakistan persecution, and “Gal” healing loneliness. He's producing homegrown authentic modern worship that the Indian population can relate to - and I frankly find fascinating!. In this podcast we learn about how he's blending traditional instruments like tablas, harmoniums and sitar with western musical influences in this new wave of worship music sweeping thru the Church there.Chapters: 0:00 Intro to More Cowbell Please1:07 Meet Prince Mulla: Bollywood & Faith1:36 Prince’s Christian Roots in India2:03 Music Journey: Harmonium to Keyboard2:26 Studying Music in Chennai2:51 Bollywood Beginnings as Keyboardist3:35 Leading Worship for 500,0005:05 Navigating Bollywood’s Music Scene5:55 Faith in Bollywood: Staying True6:28 Producing Ads & Jingles7:16 Viral Christian Songwriting Begins8:10 Personal Worship Through Music9:05 India’s 26 Languages & Hindi Worship9:45 Christianity in India: 2% & Growing11:13 Conversion Laws in India13:26 Christ Follower, Not Christian14:30 Church Growth Amid Persecution16:47 Indian Worship Meets Western Sound18:07 Western Music’s Impact on India18:36 India’s Wealth Divide Explained19:38 Breaking India’s Caste System21:45 First Impressions of America22:56 Zinda’s Impact After Church Bombing24:36 Gal: A Song for God’s Hug26:41 India’s Got Talent & Guinness Record27:33 Nations of Worship Ministry28:10 Keeping Worship Pure, Not Paid29:12 Rich Mullins’ Money Philosophy29:58 Choosing Ministry Over Money30:27 Christian Music Scene in India31:21 Outro & Duncan Phillips Tease🎧ALL EPISODES:.https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLBt6FZ88v_g64fr3KfLjQgPIM0vUYRZy9 PODCAST:Listen on Spotify https://open.spotify.com/episode/0v9dEeIH0OeP1chxSfQ7gj?si=d0HmJihHTjGhiEuwP8cYewListen on Apple Podcastshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/more-cowbell-please/id1796605641
