Hours after their single ‘Ik Raanjha’ was released on June 30, singer, songwriter and composer Shashaa Tirupati, vocalist Shivam Mahadevan and composer and producer Sid Paul join in on a Zoom video call to relive the making of the song and video. Amid friendly banter and laughter, the trio displays a deep sense of respect towards each other and the joy of working on the song as they take turns to compliment each other’s contribution to the song.
Inspired by the poetry of Sufi mystic Bulleh Shah, the song is treated with a mix of traditional Sufism and contemporary elements. One of the two singers, 22-year-old Shivam, brings alive the freshness and timelessness of folk music aligned with the 33-year-old Shashaa’s husky and powerful vocals.
