Starting off “Gustakhiya” creates a dreamlike sequence with echoes that not only later on move to perfectly embody the RnB vibes deep within the Pop game. Lyrically the song has one of the most perfectly written, especially the bit in English, sung effortlessly by Addy. His vocal range is something his followers are already aware of and he brings the same kind of energy to this track as well. The original idea was Addy’s yet the entire composition was built around the theme of grief and misery of parting ways with someone you love by both Shardul and him. The effortless and breezy vibe of the song falls in contrast with the theme. The composition is extremely light with beats that compel you to sway to the tune.

Addy Paull is a singer, music producer, and a vocal coach based in Delhi. His covers all over platforms have gained a separate fanbase with thousands of viewers. He has also been the lead singer of the Indian metal band, Warwan, fully showcasing his metal in different genres such as Classical Rock, Indian Classical and Heavy Metal. Shardul Mehta has years of experience in performing , composing and producing music for artists in the Indian musical scene and has had collaborations with one of the biggest artists like the Superfuzz, Cyanide, The Midival Punditz etc. “Gustakhiya” is a catchy tune from the duo that’s bound to make you smile. Its upbeat vibe and catchy lyrics make it perfect for any playlist. You’ll find yourself coming back to it again and again.
