Shenai by Kantik takes its name from the shehnai, a traditional North Indian wind instrument played at weddings and temple ceremonies for its auspicious, celebratory sound. This short excerpt circulated online as a standalone soundboard clip, detached from the full track and reused in meme edits and short videos. Its bright, unmistakable tone made it useful as an instant audio cue for entrances and celebrations, which is why creators keep returning to it even without knowing the original track title.
