Heartless - Heartless by Gaurav Dagaonkar, Mohit Chauhan, Anirudh Bhola, Suzanne D'Mello

Heartless - Heartless arrived from the Heartless album and quickly became one of the most replayed tracks of 2014. Gaurav Dagaonkar sets the tone from the very first bar — it is clear from the opening notes that this song means business.

Gaurav Dagaonkar, Mohit Chauhan, Anirudh Bhola, Suzanne D'Mello brings a warmth to Heartless - Heartless that no production choice could manufacture — it has to be felt, and here it is. Featuring Adhyayan Suman, Arianaayam, Om Puri, Deepti Naval, Shekhar Suman, the song carries the weight of the film's emotional arc and delivers it with conviction.

2014 was a strong year for Hindi music, and Heartless - Heartless was among the reasons why. Whether it plays on a long drive, during a quiet evening at home, or through earphones on a crowded commute, the song meets the listener where they are.

Running to 4:27, the song is exactly as long as it needs to be, which is the hardest length for a songwriter to find. For anyone yet to hear Heartless - Heartless, the experience ahead is a good one. For those returning, it will be as good as they remember.
