For this writer, the pick of the lot was Khoyi hui dhun, with its beautiful instrumental melody. “The song is difficult to explain, but comes with a lot of emotion. The idea for Khoyi hui dhun is so fresh,” the songwriter reveals. Adding to the point, Agarwal says that the composition was a search for a lost tune in memory. “Hence the title,” he says.

While the band’s plans to set off on a tour in December of 2019 were put on hold following the pandemic, they are finally en route to doing what they enjoy the most — performing live. Tiwari shares, “Nothing can better the experience of playing live. When you play the songs you composed and the crowd joins in; that is the best part.”
