Tanmay Batra delivers a haunting follow-up with “Kyun” - A Soulful Dive into the Why of Love

After making a striking debut with Thehra Hoon, emerging artist Tanmay Batra returns with Kyun - a stirring exploration of heartbreak’s most difficult question: why? The second single from his forthcoming EP ‘APART’.

Kyun deepens the emotional landscape that Tanmay began sketching with his debut, blending soulful R&B tones with introspective lyricism and cinematic production.

Where Thehra Hoon captured stillness in heartbreak, Kyun is the sound of searching - the restless ache that follows loss. Produced by Miklos Malek, whose credits include Ariana Grande and Jennifer Lopez, the track fuses hip-hop rhythms with delicate strings and atmospheric layers, building a rich, immersive sound that draws listeners into its emotional depth

“If Thehra Hoon was me standing still in heartbreak, Kyun is me walking through it,” says Tanmay. “It’s the moment when you start questioning everything - not to find answers, but to understand the depth of your own emotions.”

The accompanying music video, directed by Khanak Batra, visualizes that emotional unraveling through poetic imagery and cinematic stillness. Together, the siblings craft a world where vulnerability meets visual storytelling - transforming heartbreak into art once again.

Kyun continues Tanmay’s journey through ‘APART’, a deeply personal body of work that examines love, loss, and memory through a contemporary R&B and hip-hop lens. His sound is marked by introspection and texture - drawing listeners into soundscapes that feel as honest as diary entries yet as immersive as film scores.

A Berklee Abu Dhabi alumnus, Tanmay merges his training in songwriting and production with an instinct for storytelling that’s raw and cinematic. With his distinctive blend of emotion and modernity, he’s quickly emerging as one of the region’s most exciting new voices in music today.

Kyun releases today 5th November on all major streaming platforms and YouTube.
