Seth, who has also lent his vocals to the song, elaborates, “Earlier, we were going for a slightly ambient electronic approach but when I was producing, I could hear the acoustic guitar, ukulele and other string instruments. That’s how we organically took it ahead.” With Prathamesh Dudhane handling the mixing, it went through multiple versions before finding that sweet spot.

Sweet, it certainly is. Melodious and vibrant, the composition is a slow-burn. The blend of Khanna’s vocals and the string acoustics have a charming effect, before the harmonious orchestration kicks in. Seth’s vocals and the drum percussions take the song to another level towards the end. The singer-composer adds that the song was born out of her own experiences and doubts as an artiste. Khanna says, “This song draws parallels from my life as an artiste. Despite being self-assured and confident, there is a pressure of being well-received and having the song do well in terms of numbers. This fuelled the composition.” For now, the melody certainly soothes any insecurities on a dark evening.
