Maahi’s latest release, "Tere Saath,” is a song that goes beyond the ordinary and speaks directly to the heart. It’s an intimate reflection of the connections that shape our lives, crafted with a rawness that makes it relatable. Rather than just focusing on romance, Maahi draws inspiration from the people who mean the most to him—his grandparents, parents, friends, and even the idea of a future partner. "This song is an ode to love in all its forms," he says. "It’s inspired by my Thammu, Nani, and Nanu. Even though Thammu is no longer here, her presence is felt daily. It’s for my parents, who are my guiding lights, my friends who stick with me no matter what, and for that romantic special someone I hope to meet one day."
The music video complements the sentiment perfectly. The visuals centered around polaroids—simple but powerful symbols of love that we carry with us. Maahi shares, "All my friends have polaroids of their partners tucked away somewhere, like in their wallets or at the back of their phones. I love that idea, that someone is always with you in a limited but meaningful way." The visuals amplify this sense of ever-present connection, even in the absence of the other person, subtly underscoring the song’s heartfelt message.
Starting his musical journey at the age of nine, Maahi has grown and evolved as an artist, but at 19, he's still discovering new aspects of his sound. "I’m still figuring out where I fit musically," he admits. "But I try to keep it authentic and write lyrics that actually mean something instead of just following trends." And that’s exactly how "Tere Saath" feels—authentic and genuine, not just crafted for radio play but for real connection.
His career hit a significant milestone this year when he performed at the Cannes Film Festival, an experience that left a lasting impression. "It was surreal, surrounded by so much artistry. It made me want to represent India on a bigger stage." With the release of "Tere Saath," Maahi is clearly just getting started, and if you’re wondering what’s next? "A lot of new music," he hints, "and sooner than you think."
