A year after the success of Mohit Suri’s film Saiyaara, music composer Tanishk Bagchi has publicly stated he is still awaiting ₹8 lakh in royalties for the movie’s title track. In a lengthy Instagram post, he emphasized that he is not seeking sympathy but expressed disappointment over the lack of financial recognition despite the song’s popularity. The music composer emphasized that he shared his struggles not to seek sympathy, but to highlight the efforts and sacrifices involved in creating the song.
This experience has transformed his outlook on the industry, leading him to collaborate only with producers and directors who appreciate creativity and honesty. Saiyaara’s title track features music by Tanishk Bagchi, Faheem Abdullah, and Arslan Nizami, with lyrics written by Irshad Kamil and performed by Faheem. The song expresses deep emotions of longing and heartbreak in love.
