Ravi Kishan’s internet-breaking dialogue “Money follows my brother” is getting a full musical makeover. T-Series announced the official track titled Money Follows My Brother, set to release on Friday, September 11. The news comes after weeks of the actor-politician’s interview clip dominating social media feeds, memes, and reels across India.
The line originally came from Ravi Kishan’s conversation with podcaster Raj Shamani. When asked whether he valued pehchaan (recognition) or paisa (money), Kishan replied, “Pehchaan. Money follows my brother, money follows!”. The response quickly turned into one of the most shared memes on the internet, with users creating countless variations and reaction videos.
Now, T-Series has taken that viral moment and turned it into an official song. Music label head Bhushan Kumar shared a teaser of the music video on social media, giving fans a first look at what to expect.
Teaser Shows Ravi Kishan in Golden Jacket
The 25-second teaser opens with a mother and son sitting inside a car. The mother questions the boy about his future, pointing out his lack of interest in studies. The boy then lip-syncs to Ravi Kishan’s voiceover, saying, “Pure desh ko pagla dunga, abhi kuch pesh kiya hai, suno” (I will make the whole country mad, I have presented something now, listen).
The camera then completes a full 360-degree pan, revealing Ravi Kishan sitting in the same car, dressed in a sparkling golden jacket and surrounded by gold jewellery. He delivers his now-iconic line: “Naam ya daam? Naam. Money follows my brother, money follows”.
The teaser ends with the title card ‘Bhushan Kumar’s Money Follows My Brother’.
Fans React with Humour and Excitement
Social media users quickly responded to the announcement with laughter and excitement. Many appreciated how T-Series turned a popular meme into an official track.
One user commented, “Humare Ravi Jackson ka song” (Our Ravi Jackson’s song). Another wrote, “Ravi kishan enjoying his memes”. A third reaction read, “T-Series literally cash the line, money follows my brother”.
On Instagram, fans shared their excitement with comments like, “Ravi Kishan or Trend? Ravi Kishan..! Trends follow my brother”. Another user joked, “sorry ravi kishan i was not aware of your game”. One comment perfectly summed up the mood: “Aapda ko avsar me badalna koi inse sikhe” (Someone should learn from him how to turn a crisis into an opportunity).
Ravi Kishan himself shared the teaser on Instagram, writing, “Poore desh ko paglaane aa raha hu @ravikishann #MoneyFollowsMyBrother releasing on 11th sep”.
How the Meme Started
The “Money follows my brother” moment happened during Ravi Kishan’s appearance on Raj Shamani’s podcast. Shamani asked the actor-politician whether he prioritised recognition or money. Kishan chose recognition and added the now-famous line, explaining that building a strong name and reputation eventually brings financial success.
The clip spread rapidly across platforms like Instagram, YouTube, and Twitter. Users turned it into memes, reels, and reaction videos. The phrase became a catchphrase for anyone prioritising reputation over immediate financial gain.
Ravi Kishan on Being a Meme Sensation
In a recent conversation with Hindustan Times, Ravi Kishan spoke about his unexpected internet fame. He credited Gen Z for accepting him through memes and said the attention was happening organically.
“The best part is that this is happening organically. Even the BJP handle, Delhi Police and Maharashtra Government have made memes. I am personally following it all and dropping a ‘like’ as well. No one has discovered me before. Now, they want to see me more and know me more. Gen Z has accepted me as their own. I really want to thank them and salute their creativity.”
He added, “Out of love, they call me Lord Ravi, God Ravi, today’s Osho and whatnot! They love real people; they connect with my imperfections, which makes them feel I am one amongst them.”
Busy Time for Ravi Kishan
The song announcement comes at a busy time for the actor-politician. He is currently receiving attention for his role as Babban Yadav in Mirzapur: The Movie, which released in cinemas on September 4. The film, based on the popular Prime Video series, also features Pankaj Tripathi, Ali Fazal, and Divyenndu.
Mirzapur: The Movie took a strong opening at the box office, earning Rs 100 crore in India within its first four days.
Ravi Kishan will also appear in Khosla Ka Ghosla 2. He was recently seen in Dhamaal 4 alongside Ajay Devgn, Arshad Warsi, and Riteish Deshmukh.
Beyond his film career, Kishan serves as a BJP Member of Parliament representing Gorakhpur.
