On top of my playlist: Saiyami Kher

Saiyami Kher

Tere bina zindagi se
It's a song that sits with you, doesn't say much, but understands everything. Gulzar saab's words and Lata ji's [Mangeshkar] voice are magic.

Kahin door jab din dhal jaye
This song feels like a quiet conversation with yourself, after a long run or a tough day on set.

Pause by Prateek Kuhad
There is a certain ache in Pause; the kind that doesn't scream, but lingers. It's not about heartbreak, it's about the quiet in-between.

Que sera sera by Doris Day
My parents always played this to me. The track is a timeless reminder to let go of control and trust the process. It is carefree, yet carries wisdom.

Taqdeer se takra
This has been my go-to song for every tough run. Swanand Kirkire's lyrics and Amit Trivedi's music make me forget any pain and help me power through a run.
