Darmiyaan, a song from the Netflix series Musafir Café, has captured the hearts of viewers with its melody, simplicity, and relatable characters. Rekha Bhardwaj, the National Award-winning singer who performed the song, attributes its popularity to its language and the poignant lyrics penned by Amrita Saluja. Rekha credits her dedication to vocal training, influenced by her guru Kishori Amonkar, for her ability to connect with the audience.
Rekha has always aspired to collaborate with her idol Vishal Bhardwaj, whom she met through her husband. Initially, he encouraged her to bring more emotion to her singing, which she did by increasing her practice hours. Their son Aasmaan's interest in Shakespeare, inspired by Vishal's introduction to the Bard, led to the creation of Musafir Café's Macbeth adaptation.
Rekha praises her husband's intelligence and ability to connect with people, recognizing that to have a successful and long-lasting career in the film industry, one must continuously work on improving their skills.
