The lyrical r&b ballad Khoya Sa, Sanjeeta Bhattacharya’s debut Hindi collaboration, portrays the story of two ladies in 21st-century sub-urban India who are perplexed by their own cultural ideals of traditional love. It’s something we’d like to see.

4. Priya Ragu’s ‘Chicken Lemon Rice’

Broken, by Anisha Uppal, also known as Anisha AOD, delves into the dark-pop realms as she croons about heartbreak over calm sounds. Please pardon us as we make this our dark-pop anthem for the rest of the year.

6. Faraway Friends’ ‘Ganga Hotel’

7. Mali’s ‘Mundane’

Don’t be fooled by the title; the song is anything but ordinary. The dreamy, mellow track will get you lost in an elongated daydream of what could be, as it underpins the truth that life remains monotonous no matter where you go unless, of course, you do something about it.

8. Lifafa’s ‘Laash’

Suryakant Sawhney A.K.A. Lifafa has released the first single off his upcoming album “Superpower 2020,” which he teased previously. We’re definitely feeling the music, which features calm, low-key layers of electronica and his voice taking centre stage.

9. When Chai Met Toast by Ocean Tide

Ocean Tide, the fourth single from Chai Met Toast’s debut album, is a lighthearted take on the ups and downs of an uneasy relationship that will remind you of your own high school relationships.
