Kashmiri folk musician Aabha Hanjura
Indian Idol 2 finalist Aabha Hanjura’s latest single marks the final one in her Sufistication album. After having already delivered acclaimed numbers like Sahibo in the acoustic and unplugged EP, the Kashmiri folk musician aspired to present “folk music from different parts” of India. “Having grown up in Jammu, I’ve been influenced by Dogri folk music, and wanted to explore the folk music of Himachal and Uttarakhand. Before the separation, there was one belt in the region, and that’s where the folklores trace back to.”
Speaking of her latest song, she says, “Hikduye gadbad is a happy and naughty song about a girl from the hills. It has a percussive yet soulful vibe, and we had a lot of fun shooting a colourful video for it. The songs have stories that correlate to the people who belong to the region.”
