Singer Arjun Kanungo, whose songs like Baaki Baatein Peene Baad and Fursat, struck a chord with the audience, says he mostly makes music for the people.

The year is coming to an end and people are in a mood to celebrate. Was the party mood on his mind while releasing his latest club track titled Gallan Tipsiyaan?

“It is all about timing. I want people to enjoy my music. So, I make sure to understand what works for the audience. A part of it is for myself, but a lot is for the audience. I feel that right now everyone is in a mood to party. November-December is the time when everyone listens to party music so I thought it was a good time to release the song,” Kanungo said.

The song, which came out earlier this week, has been viewed over two million times on YouTube. His other singles were also chartbuste­rs.

On what clicks with the audience, he said, “I think the audience wants to listen to good music. It doesn’t matter where it comes from. I’m lucky to have a lot of people who believe in me and promote my music, including radio stations and channels.

“We can no longer be only about Bollywood music. All over the world, we have pop stars, so India is not far away,” Arjun added.

Composed and sung by Kanungo with lyrics by Vayu, Gallan Tipsiyaan captures the fun spirit between friends during drunk conversati­ons.

Arjun considers the track to be “very special”.

“I think this is the best song that I have made, in terms of fast numbers. I believed in this song so much and felt that the song deserved the best. So, we shot the video in New York,” said the singer.
