About Anhad Naad

Anhad Naad is the third song release of Lal Pari Mastani, Sona Mohapatra’s ‘red artist alter ego’. The first was Mira’s ‘Shyam Piya’ & the second, the Khusrau kalaam ‘Tori Surat’. Sona Mohapatra’s free spirit & powerful vocals epitomise the primordial sound of a spiritual journey of growth & awakening, her humming in the song signifies the internal cosmic sound; Anhad Naad.

This is an original composition by Ram Sampath, written by Munna Dhiman for OmGrown Music. The lyrics are inspired by the philosophy of Kabir & the poetry of Bulleh Shah. The music video is directed Deepti Gupta & is also shot by her & Rangoli Agarwal in Jaisalmer, Rajasthan. 

I’ve never fooled anyone with more reach or numbers or love that has come my way & despite the kind of pressure that exists to do so! The songs are discovered by those who deserve them, eventually. #HeereHeere has reached 1M on Facebook & yt link: https://t.co/VJY10xLcS7 pic.twitter.com/sF1Cak1rQl
