Among the top music videos on YouTube right now, Chennai-based artist Sai Abhyankkar’s “Katchi Sera” marks a strong debut release via Think Indie, a branch of the South Indian label Think Music. It also hit the top spot on Global Viral Songs on Spotify earlier this month, currently standing at nearly 18 million streams on the platform.

Coasting on rock-solid dance floor friendly and Tamil folk-informed production, “Katchi Sera” has ornate lyrics about longing and making a connection by Adesh Krishna that adds to the relatability factor. Then, there’s a slickly shot music video by filmmaker Ken Royson with actor/model Samyuktha Viswanathan as a female lead alongside Abhyankkar, featuring choreography by Anusha Viswanathan.
