Aparshakti Khurana joins forces with Karan Malhotra for a new romantic ballad, Sundaa Raavan

Music composer Karan Malhotra has collaborated with actor and singer Aparshakti Khurana for the first time on Sundaa Raavan, a refreshing romantic ballad. The new track is described as a soulful song that successfully marries modern appeal with the comforting, timeless quality of classic melodies.

The new single focusses on falling in love every day

In contrast to the current trend of casual romances, Sundaa Raavan is a celebration of committed love—specifically, the act of falling in love with your partner anew every day. The song’s origins are deeply personal; Malhotra reportedly wrote the melody one evening while sitting beside his girlfriend and immediately sent it to Aparshakti Khurana, whose emotive vocals brought the composition to life. The track, which also features Barkha Singh, was released under the banner of Tips Music.

The song has quickly resonated with listeners, trending across major streaming platforms and surpassing two million organic views on YouTube within a day of its release.

Speaking about the creation and collaboration, Karan Malhotra shared his inspiration: “Creating Sundaa Raavan was about capturing the carefree feeling of not just falling in love, but being in love every day. In a world of fleeting romances, this song is about the calm and ease of being with that one special person.” He added, “Working with Apar (Aparshakti Khurana) was a pleasure — I’ve always been a fan of his voice, and I knew this song had to be with him.”

Aparshakti Khurana echoed the sentiment, stating, “Working with Karan was a breezy and wholesome experience. The song just clicked for us, and the love with which it was created truly reflects in it.”

While Sundaa Raavan marks Karan Malhotra's first independent release, he is a prominent name in advertising, known for composing hundreds of jingles, including the viral CRED Venkaboys anthem. He also served as the music director for the film Babli Bouncer. The new song features lyrics penned by Karan himself alongside Amar Jalal.
