One of India’s most popular singers, Arijit Singh releases his latest single “Bairiya“, a soft rock, Sufi ballad. The track features the talented actors Gurfateh Pirzada and Angira Dhar and is composed by Goldie Sohel.
A special creation that encapsulates a simple and impactful story in a backdrop of skilful composition, “Bairiya” reminds us to count our blessings and be grateful for what we have.
Director Navjit Buttar’s video depicts a tragic love story about a middle-class couple’s journey through life’s ups and downs, and the sacrifices they make for each other.
With its audio and visual presentation, ‘Bairiya’ conveys emotions in a way that cannot be readily explained.The script, actor’s performances, and music creation have all been very carefully crafted.
In Arijit Singh’s own words,
“Bairiya is an ode to the bittersweet nature of love and life. A very special song with beautiful lyrics and classic composition that I felt deeply while singing.”
Amitabh Bhattacharya, the man who gave the song words, said,
“It was a delight writing for this captivating melody by Goldie Sohel and Arijit breathes life into it with his rendition. This collaboration was an absolute pleasure from the word go. Can’t thank Sony Music enough for bringing us together for Bairiya.”
Music Composer, Goldie Sohel was all gratitude,
“It’s been so fantastically overwhelming to be releasing music with the legends of the Bollywood industry. It was a special year-long journey for creating it. We went to Arijit Da’s home-town to record his vocals, making it an exceptional memory. At the same time, I am so grateful for having Amitabh Bhattacharya’s magic in the lyrics. This song has a special place in my heart and I feel extremely blessed to have had this opportunity in my life..”
According to the Gurfateh Pirzada and Angira Dhar,
“Bairiya is a beautiful song and we’re delighted to collaborate with Sony Music on such a special song by Arijit Singh, Amitabh Bhattacharya and Goldie Sohel. The music video was exciting, challenging and out of both our comfort zones. We thoroughly enjoyed shooting together with Navjit paaji in Chandigarh and the Sony Music Team in Chandigarh and look forward to sharing our labour of love with the audiences.”
The Bairiya launch is set for the 16th of March 2023 in Lucknow, with Gurfateh Pirzada, Angira Dhar and Goldie Sohel involved.
