After releasing his debut recorded song, ‘Baarishein,’ in 2018, Anuv Jain quickly emerged as a significant voice in the Indian indie music scene, recognized for his acoustic, introspective compositions. ‘Baarishein’ became a sleeper hit, notably accumulating over 200 million streams on Spotify post-2018 and establishing him as a prominent independent artist.
