'90s pop icon Raghav Mathur revisits heartbreak two decades later with Maayera; promises that a dance number will follow

Raghav Mathur
The '90s kids, it seems, are being treated to a #throwback week-after-week. Jay Sean performed in the city recently, and then, Bryan Adams came along and made everyone sing to each of his songs. And now, Raghav Mathur is back. You have to remember him! He sang the much-acclaimed Angel Eyes — from his best-selling album, Storyteller — in 2004. Then, there were the dance numbers, Can't Get Enough and Let's Work It Out. Now, he is back with a new song, Maayera, which released last week as a Saavn Original.
When we meet him, he starts singing a stripped down version of Angel Eyes, and we are transported back to the time when we were in school. "I have been overwhelmed by the fact that people still remember me, and my songs. I have been doing things back home in Canada, but, unfortunately, not here. It's time to change that." The Calgary-based singer, who wrote Maayera (about being in love), says that he decided to make a slow, romantic number, only because he wanted to stand out.
