MUMBAI: Last week, Ritviz dropped the music video for ‘Chalo Chalein’, his latest song featuring Seedhe Maut, under the banner of #BACARDÍSESSIONS, and people just can’t seem to get enough. Having clocked more than 1 million views in the three days since its release, the second single from his album, Dev, has Ritviz’s signature sound interspersed with the melodic bars of the bi-lingual hip-hop collective Seedhe Maut.
‘Chalo Chalein’ is a visual depiction of the individual identities of dancers across genres and cultures coming together, intercut with the detailed and intricate work of a cobbler, as he finds happiness in his work. Featuring the New Delhi-based hip-hop duo Seedhe Maut and 15 talented dancers from different walks of life and unique dance styles, the video is cinematically shot to ignite passion and inspire everyone to do what moves them. The video portrays self-expression through different dance forms that come naturally to individuals, irrespective of their background. Towards the end, the cobbler himself packs up and busts a spontaneous move.
