Peer Manava - Black And White by Sukhwinder Singh, Shraddha Pandit

Some songs are made for a single moment. Peer Manava - Black And White is made for all of them. The production by Sukhwinder Singh, Shraddha Pandit, DJ A, Myth is understated in the best way — supportive without overshadowing the vocal.

Every line Sukhwinder Singh, Shraddha Pandit sings feels considered, as though the performance was thought through long before recording began. The connection between a talented ensemble cast and this song is part of what makes it resonate beyond the film itself.
