2020

The composition is very strong, as is the rendition by the composer himself. It is nice to see such fresh fusion compositions coming back to the forefront thanks to OTT content. The soft rock complements the classical melody beautifully. The ravanahatha sounds exquisite. Overall, this sounds straight out of Coke Studio. -Rujul

The most tolerable of the fusion songs. The music is too busy as usual, but there *is* a melody, so that's something. -Shalini

A promising debut for Aseem Trivedi. Rarely we get to hear semi-classical songs these days. -Mihir

Catchy tune, great lyrics, and really good singing by Aseem Trivedi. Lovely use of sarangi played by Rafiq Ahmed. Overall, loved the song. (It was very hard to find the name of the lyricist for this song…never found appropriate credits). -Vaishali

Beautifully sung. -Amborish

The score is good but the singing is a let down. -Subrat

Very soothing melodic piece from Aseem Trivedi that seems some lovely use of the sarangi. Trivedi was another promising debutant to break into the scene this year thanks to the plethora of web series. -Vipin

Wonderful use of israj (or is that sarod?). I enjoyed this track quite a bit. Based on the number of views and likes on Youtube, I gotta say it's quite underrated, and Aseem Trivedi deserves more recognition. And hey, when was the last time you heard the woebegone phrase 'musht-e-gubaar' (fistful of dust)?! -Vishal

Needed better voice, but a talent to watch out for. -Anup

The instrumentation and singing elevate the song to much greater heights. -Aman

Bahut sundar. Aseem's voice is as beautiful as the lyrics. -Akanksha

Lovely Sarangi/Esraj phrases kick off this lovely melody that reminds me of Iktara in a super nice way. I was pleasantly surpised that Aseem's softer voice was featured in the song instead of more textured vocals like that of Mohan Kannan's. The singer's softer voice helps breaks the monotony and showcases the tune in a fantastic manner. -Krithikaa
