GAGAN DHUAN DHUAN (OPUS 3)
B Prasanna's new original, Gagan Dhuan Dhuan, a song in Hindi released on the 11th of June, 2022 on his Youtube channel and other major streaming platforms. The song features the Oscar-nominated Bombay Jayashri on vocals and lyrics are penned by Preetika Dixit. The music video is directed by Sriram Raja.
Gagan Dhuan Dhuan is an ode to the impressionist era. It is custom-made for the enchanting quality of Bombay Jayashri’s voice and range. It flows with her vocal from start to end, sans any interludes or non-sequiturs. The song is an impression of a woman sitting by the window and singing to herself, all alone in her hill-top house. Her voice reflects her nostalgia, while the music feeds off the nature around her.
