GUWAHATI | SEPT 15, 2020:

'Siyaahii', a new single by Assam's singer Papon Angarag Mahanta and award-winning artist, Shashaa Tirupati is set to go live on September 15.

While the audio was out on September 4, the video will go live today.

Shashaa Tirupati is a National Award, Screen and Filmfare award-winning Indo-Canadian playback singer, songwriter, music producer/arranger, motivational speaker, theatre actor and voice-over artist of Kashmiri origin.

"Siyaahii is a baby that has nurtured with a lot of affection, patience and care. I have composed, written the song and sung on it alongside one of my favourite voices in the country, Papon," said Shashaa.

"Siyaahii" is a romantic track that talks of the permanent effect certain people have in one's life, and end up getting inked to your heart.

"We're all a little damaged. It's about fixing scars with another permanent mark that someone leaves on you for life, but through care, sacrifice, healing and affection," she said.

The song was partially shot in Vancouver, Canada, where she lives, and in Assam where Papon currently stays.

Papon is an Indian playback singer from Assam. Papon also worked as singer-songwriter and music director in Assamese films. He is the lead singer and founder of the folk-fusion band Papon and The East India Company.
