Longing - Nitin Sawhney feat. Nicki Wells & Ashwin Srinivasan, Coke Studio @ MTV Season 2
This song is primarily about an overpowering sense of longing. Based on a poem written by Nitin’s mother, this song is about longing for a person, a life, a home land...
It is the chahat one has for various things in life one hasn’t received yet. This composition is very metaphoric and elegant.
