"Qadam Qadam Baṛhāye Ja" (Hindi: क़दम क़दम बढ़ाये जा, Urdu: قدم قدم بڑھائے جا) is an Indian marching song that was originally used for the Indian National Army. Written by Vanshidhar Shukla and composed by Ram Singh Thakuri in 1942, it had been banned by the British in India after World War II as seditious. The ban was lifted in August 1947 and the song has since become a patriotic anthem in India. It has been re-interpreted by various Indian musicians including C. Ramachandra, A. R. Rahman and recently by Indraadip Dasgupta in the film Gumnaami (2019) by Srijit Mukherji.
The song is currently the regimental quick march of the Indian Army.[1][2]
