Savera unveils a deeply personal debut EP
Savera has officially released his highly anticipated debut EP, Strongest Boy Alive . This seven-track collection offers a profound and intimate exploration of stillness, grief, and healing. Its full release follows the unveiling of its third track, Galtiyaan , featuring Nikhita Gandhi. Savera wrote, composed, and produced the entire EP himself, infusing it with his personal journey. Listeners previously got a glimpse of this with the release of the first two tracks— Aahista and Veer Mere —a collaboration with Punjabi artist Burrah, both of which garnered significant positive attention. Galtiyaan , released just a day before the full EP, captures the essence of Bombay's bustling life—its rush, noise, and blurring nights—delving into the pursuit of connection in fleeting moments and the subsequent feeling of emptiness. Each song on the EP unravels a different aspect of Savera's experiences: from the serene calm of Aahista and the emotional reflection in Veer Mere , to the melancholic solitude of Galtiyaan , the gentle hope of Fiza , the quiet acceptance in Deewar , and the raw vulnerability of the title track, Strongest Boy Alive . The EP beautifully encapsulates the imperfect beauty of the human experience, concluding with an acoustic version of Aahista , accompanied by a special performance video by Savera. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Switch to UnionBank Rewards Card UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo Reflecting on the release, Savera shared, 'This EP came together in the quiet—between long walks, surfing, and the kind of stillness that makes you feel everything more clearly.

They were made while slowing down, while trying to make sense of things—love, mistakes, grief, healing. It's not perfect. But it's honest.'

Strongest Boy Alive: Savera's Deeply Personal Debut EP Captures Solitude And Healing
Last Updated: Savera releases his debut solo EP Strongest Boy Alive, a self-produced, Hindi-language record exploring love, loss, and healing through seven emotional tracks. Savera, one of the most distinctive voices in India's music scene, has just released his highly awaited debut solo EP, Strongest Boy Alive. Known for his popular work in Bollywood, including acclaimed tracks like Jaadu from Netflix's Jewel Thief, and hits like Doobey from Gehraiyaan and Kho Gaye Hum Kahan, Savera now steps into a more intimate, introspective space with this seven-track offering, written, composed, and produced entirely by him. The EP, which dropped on June 14, opens a new chapter in Savera's artistic evolution. Made in solitude, it is a vulnerable, self-reflective record shaped during long walks, quiet days of surfing, and deep personal stillness. The latest single from the EP, Galtiyaan, featuring vocalist Nikhita Gandhi, was released a day prior to the full project and captures the restless pulse of Mumbai — its noise, blur, and emotional chaos. It's a song about seeking connection in the wrong places, only to be left emptier than before. Earlier, Savera had released Aahista and Veer Mere — the latter in collaboration with Punjabi artist Burrah — both of which received warm appreciation from fans. Each track on Strongest Boy Alive reveals a different layer of emotional complexity. From the calm introspection of Aahista to the quiet sorrow in Veer Mere, the late-night confusion of Galtiyaan, the glimmer of optimism in Fiza, the acceptance in Deewar, and the emotional core in the title track Strongest Boy Alive, this EP is more than a collection of songs. It is a gentle reckoning. The final track, Aahista (Acoustic), is accompanied by a performance video on Savera's YouTube channel. Speaking about the EP, Savera says, 'This isn't a concept project, but it is written in stillness, reflection, the quiet mess of being human. These songs weren't made to impress anyone. They were made while slowing down, while trying to make sense of things — love, mistakes, grief, healing. It's not perfect. But it's honest." Savera's musical journey began long before the fame. Raised on his grandmother's poetry, he picked up the guitar at eight, formed a punk rock band in his early teens, and began shaping a unique voice that blends raw emotion with sonic craftsmanship. He cut his teeth composing over 500 brand pieces for companies like H&M, Nissan, and Taj, before making his breakthrough in Bollywood. His work on Gehraiyaan in collaboration with OAFF catapulted him to widespread recognition, with Doobey alone crossing 125 million Spotify streams. He has since received accolades including the Mirchi Music Award for Best Upcoming Music Composer and an IIFA nomination for Best Music Director. Now based in Goa, Savera leads a life far from the industry spotlight, often off the grid, grounded by the sea, music, chess, and his pets. That quiet lifestyle pulses through every note on Strongest Boy Alive, a body of work that marks a bold and heartfelt entry into India's independent music landscape. The EP is now available on all leading streaming platforms. First Published: June 14, 2025, 18:58 IST

Singer Savera's latest single is a heartfelt tribute to his deceased brother: ‘He was a free spirit, full of life'
Savera Mehta aKa Savera's latest single, Veer Mere, is more than just a song—it's a deeply personal tribute to his late brother, who died by suicide when the singer-songwriter was just 19 years old. The track, featuring Punjabi singer-songwriter Burrah, marks the second release from his upcoming debut independent EP Strongest Boy Alive, and as Savera himself says, it stands out as his most vulnerable work yet. Crafted as an elegy, Veer Mere delves into the complex emotions of grief, confusion, and love that linger after the loss of a loved one. 'He was a free spirit, full of life. It came as a shock to my family when we heard that he took his life,' he tells us. For years, he struggled to put those emotions into words. 'I tried to write about it before, but fear always stopped me,' he admits. When he finally returned to the idea, Savera made a decisive choice—not to sing it himself. 'I knew the only voice I could trust with something this personal was Burrah's,' he explains. The duo had previously collaborated on the hit track Dil Mera, which resonated widely with listeners, and that trust and understanding carried into this new project. Writing Veer Mere became a cathartic process for both artists. The song doesn't just mourn a loss—it grapples with the guilt and helplessness that often follow, the feeling of loving someone without fully grasping the weight they carried. 'The real challenge was to realise that it's best to have someone else sing the song. To see it from a different lens and perspective,' Savera reflects. A post shared by savera (@ Burrah's soulful voice brings the raw emotion of the lyrics to life, making Veer Mere not only a tribute but a space for shared healing. With gentle melodies and powerful storytelling, the track invites listeners to sit with their grief, honor their loved ones, and perhaps, find some peace in the process.

Savera's latest single is a sound of slow living, straight from the ocean
After a nearly two-year hiatus, Savera returns with his latest single, Aahista , signaling a significant new chapter in his musical journey.

The track's delicate melodies and poignant lyrics beautifully convey the power of stillness and introspection. Sharing his personal connection to the song, Savera said: " Aahista came from mornings where I'd sit quietly by the ocean and just let myself be still. It's about slowing down, letting the world move without you for a bit, and realising that's okay. Moving to a slower life helped me reconnect with nature, and with myself. This song came from that stillness." His upcoming seven-track EP, Strongest Boy Alive , promises to be a deeply personal collection, exploring themes of vulnerability, growth, and self-discovery through various facets of his artistry. Elaborating on the EP's creationthe musician said: "This came together during a time when I'd stepped away from the rush. From deadlines, city noise, everything. It's full of songs that came out in between naps, long walks, and quiet moments that I didn't think anyone would see. But maybe they're exactly the kind of moments people need to hear right now."
