== Making ==
Portuguese music video producer David Valentim contacted Manipuri folk music artist [[:simple:Mangka Mayanglambam|Mangka Mayanglambam]] and her lyricist father Mayanglambam Mangangsana through email about his desire to collaborate Portuguese music with Meitei music.<ref name="auto"/><ref name="auto2"/>

When the collaboration between the two musical cultures was confirmed and finalised, Manipuri musical lyricist Mangangsana sent three musical tracks to the Portuguese producer David Valentim through email. David chose the song "Nura Pakhang" among the three. Clã also wrote their own musical lyrics to mix it with the Meitei folk song. All these processes of conversations were done through emails and the song was finally created.<ref name="auto3"/><ref name="auto1"/> Interestingly, Mangka Mayanglambam and her father Mayanglambam Mangangsana had never met David Valentim and the Portuguese artists of "Clã" in real life. So, the artists could not record the song together but it does not affect their touring together in the musical journey. It is director [[Romi Meitei]] who met both teams of Meitei and Portuguese artists.<ref name="auto"/><ref name="auto2"/>

The first part of the music video was made in [[Manipur]] of [[India]] and its later parts are made in [[Porto]] of [[Portugal]]. The contributions of the lyrics are mainly credited to Carlos Tê, Hélder Gonçalves, [[Manuela Azevedo]] and Mayanglambam Mangangana. "Nura Pakhang" shows the way in which two different things depend on each other in a way that make sense together. The sound of the music video crosses jazzy pop rock with traditional Manipuri music.<ref name="auto4"/><ref name="auto1"/>

== Release ==
The song "Nura Pakhang" was released was released worldwide on 28 April 2017.<ref name="auto3"/>

Regarding radio broadcasting, it was released on "[[Antena 3 (Portugal)|Antena 3]]", one of the biggest radio channels in [[Portugal]].<ref name="auto3"/><ref name="auto1"/>

According to an interview with [[:simple:Mangka Mayanglambam|Mangka Mayanglambam]] by [[IANS]] ([[Indo-Asian News Service]]), she said:
<blockquote><poem>"The song was launched in April. It is played on radio in Portugal and is available on the internet. But I will be able to distribute it after June. I never thought of earning a profit from this project. All the proceeds will go to Make a Wish Foundation."<ref name="auto"/><ref name="auto2"/></poem></blockquote>

Mangka believes that language is not a barrier. She said to the IANS:
<blockquote><poem>"Music is a Universal language, still each and every place has its own culture. It's best to follow our culture."<ref name="auto"/><ref name="auto2"/></poem></blockquote>
