Shae Gill’s ‘Sukoon’ becoming Bollywood’s new favourite song after ‘Pasoori’

After the global hit of her Coke Studio debut Pasoori, Shae Gill’s latest track Sukoon is becoming another favourite song which she sang in collaboration with Lahore’s Hassan and Roshaan.

The song is now making it to the playlist of Bollywood celebrities.

Bollywood actors Ayushmann Khurrana and Rohit Saraf linked the song to their Instagram posts which were re-posed by Hassan and Roshaan. “What is happening? We seriously didn’t expect all this love and support,” they captioned.

Sukoon is striking a chord with listeners for both its aesthetic music video and peaceful vibes. While some have taken issue with what they believe are subtle hints of queerness in the video, a majority of listeners find the song therapeutic and beautiful. A few have even compared Gill’s voice to the legendary Nazia Hassan’s after listening to the song, an article published in Express Tribune read.

While Sukoon released in October, its music video came out earlier in December– and it was worth the wait.

Hassan and Roshan took to Instagram to share the clip and wrote, “When the director heard the song, he said the song gave him a sense of peace coupled with melancholy. Like a goldfish in a fishbowl, zindagi haseen bhi hay, tanha bhi hay [life is also beautiful, life is also lonely). A goldfish in a bowl, perhaps the prettiest, loneliest thing one could visualize.”
