Darshan Raval on his artistry

Talking about it on his 28th birthday, the star singer said, “For the last three years, I have been making a conscious effort to give a return gift to my fans. They are always so excited about my birthday, aur do din pehle se countdown start hojaata hai. The song is my way of saying thank you to them. I did Duniya Chor Dunga last year, and before that I did an entire album to gift them. This is also a very old song. There was only one line and people loved it so much that they kept on telling me to complete the song and release it soon. And here we are!”

However, he also spoke that while Kesariya’s teaser made quite a hype amongst the netizens, the actual song track didn’t make quite the same. Talking about it he said, “I don’t create songs to meet expectations. I strive to do what I believe to be good and right. So, initially people might find it different…or not like it because our imaginations take us anywhere with one line. However, as the melody grows, I am confident they will enjoy it eventually. As musicians, we spend a lot of time analysing it. We as artiste are our harshest critics. When I make songs for my fans, every detail is meticulously scrutinised and I ensure that I convey the right emotions. Wo ek line bhi mene hi banai thi, and as a musician, I work on the entire song with the same zeal.” As quoted by Hindustan Times.
