# Om Jai Jagdish Hare

Om Jai Jagdish Hare (Hindi: ॐ जय जगदीश हरे) is a Hindu religious song written by Shardha Ram Phillauri. It is a Hindi-language composition dedicated to the deity Vishnu, popularly sung during the ritual of arti.
It has been described as a "film arti" due to its inclusion in the film Purab Aur Paschim (1970), after which it became immensely popular such that it entered temple pujas. Due to its popularisation by Bollywood cinema, it has been described as a "national arti" that is sung on any given religious occasion. In the late 1980s, it was associated with younger educated people whose notions of religious ritual had had greater influence from Hindi cinema than local religious tradition.
