MUMBAI: ‘Dekho Na’ by Raman is a heartfelt song, inviting the girl he loves into a dreamy world, where it’s just the two of them. In reality, he’s struggling to understand the distance between them, asking her to trust him with her heart, because she’s the only one he sees. In its blend of Hindi and English, ‘Dekho Na’ narrates a situation where the narrator asks his partner not to perceive him with judgement and expresses the desire to create and completely fall into a realm of their own, where it’s just the narrator and the protagonist. He convinces his partner to trust him and go of all scepticism about their relationship.
Despite being 19, Raman is a seasoned composer and performer which is audible in his craft. Raman started extensively making music during the lockdown, he is a growing sensation in the Indian pop landscape. With a captivating demeanour, he evokes a feeling of intrigue when he sings. Raman spent significant time working on the sound and lyrics of ‘Dekho Na’, making this one of his most carefully crafted releases. (Raman strikes gold – again – with ‘Dekho Na’)
