Arijit Singh reunites with Rochak Kohli for 'Purane Din' from Pehla Pyaar Doosri Baar
Synopsis
Key Takeaways
Celebrated playback singer Arijit Singh has reunited with composer Rochak Kohli, lyricist Kumaar, and filmmaker Luv Ranjan for a brand-new track titled 'Purane Din', released ahead of the forthcoming drama 'Pehla Pyaar Doosri Baar'. The collaboration marks a creative homecoming for the quartet, who previously joined hands on the widely beloved song 'Tera Yaar Hoon Main'.
About the Song
Composed by Rochak Kohli and penned by Kumaar, 'Purane Din' is crafted to evoke the innocence and nostalgia of first love and early friendships. The track is currently available on T-Series Music and serves as an emotional anchor for the six protagonists of the film — Tushar Chhibber, Sargun Kaur Luthra, Kunal Vaid, Sakshi Vaidya, Sparsh Walia, and Alisha Chopra — all of whom are making their acting debut with this project.
What the Creators Said
Speaking about the collaboration, composer Rochak Kohli said, 'The love Tera Yaar Hoon Main continues to receive even today is something I'm extremely grateful for. With Purane Din, I'm happy to reunite with Luv Ranjan, Arijit and Kumaar and explore another emotion that is just as universal — the innocence of first love. We've tried to create a song that feels familiar yet new, and I hope Purane Din can recreate that same magic and resonate with listeners for years to come.'
Lyricist Kumaar added, 'Both Tera Yaar Hoon Main and Purane Din come from a very similar emotional space — friendship and the memories we create while growing up. With Purane Din, I wanted to capture that innocence of college life, when friendships, first crushes and the smallest moments could feel so significant. The idea was to write about a time that we may have left behind, but whose emotions still stay with us. I hope the lyrics bring back that feeling of being young, having your friends around you and experiencing those first emotions together.'
The Film and Its Cast
Presented by Luv Films and jointly produced by Luv Ranjan and Ankur Garg, 'Pehla Pyaar Doosri Baar' is slated to release in cinemas on 23 October 2026. Notably, all six lead actors are newcomers, making this project a significant launchpad for fresh talent under the established Luv Films banner.
The Legacy of 'Tera Yaar Hoon Main'
The creative reunion draws its emotional credibility from 'Tera Yaar Hoon Main', which became a generational anthem celebrating friendship. Its continued popularity years after release speaks to the enduring appeal of the Kohli–Kumaar–Singh combination. 'Purane Din' attempts to harness that same connection — rooted in shared memories, college corridors, and the bittersweetness of growing up.
With Arijit Singh's distinctive voice lending warmth to Kumaar's nostalgic verse, the track is positioned to build audience anticipation ahead of the film's theatrical debut later this month.
