Composer Jatin Pandit turns lyricist for son Raahul Jatin’s song ‘Yaadein Aane Lagi’

Music composer Jatin Pandit, one half of the musical duo Jatin-Lalit, has turned lyricist for his son Raahul Jatin’s single ‘Yaadein Aane Lagi.’ The song is sung by Raahul and the official video features also him alongside US-based model Madison Trunnell. 

Speaking about the song, Raahul said in an official statement, “It is a romantic number which I feel would appeal to the youth. [It] has a very cool vibe. I actually intended to compose another upbeat number but with the general state of affairs, I believe there is melancholy in the air. The world has slowed down and there is uncertainty.”

He added, “I started with high octane notes, but I ditched it altogether because it just did not feel right and I ended up composing a ballad. I got my parents to hear a scratch version of it, my father was very gracious to work on the lyrics and we promptly recorded it.” 

Jatin Pandit said he was surprised when I heard the tune in its raw form because the idea of music has really changed with Raahul’s generation. "In a strange way it took me back to ‘Pehla Nasha’ so I offered to help with the lyrics. The concept, melody and even the idea of a slow soft tune is all Raahul’s. I was tempted to meddle with the music a bit, but I refrained because an original composition is always the best.”
