Welcome back to Our First Find, the series where we unearth musical gems you probably snoozed on — or worse, never knew existed. Volume 3 comes in hot with "Khoon" by Hanita Bhambri, pulled from her explosive debut album Shoharat. If you’ve been watching Bhambri's evolution, you already know this isn’t the same gentle-hearted indie darling we first met. This is her claws-out, no-prisoners era.
Based in Mumbai, Hanita Bhambri has been steadily shifting from soft ballads to something much sharper, darker, and altogether more thrilling. Starting last October, she teased her transformation with singles like Zeher, Daayan, Khoon, and Bhool Bhulaiya. But the album still had surprises in store — including biting tracks like Bhediya, Macchar, and Zillat. It's a fearless, genre-warping pivot into brooding pop-rock and darkwave-adjacent storytelling. And Bhambri wears it like armor.
“Khoon” is arguably the spine of Shoharat — a slow-burn track drenched in menace and conviction. It opens with haunting ambient textures before building into a gritty, pulsating anthem layered with distorted guitars and synths. Bhambri’s vocals cut through like a blade — sultry, snarling, and deliberate — as she weaves a narrative about betrayal, control, and the body as a battlefield. There’s a cinematic quality to its composition, thanks in part to Sagar Dhote’stextured production, which gives the song space to breathe and seethe. This isn’t a breakup song; it’s a reckoning.
Hanita Bhambri isn’t just the singer here — she’s the composer, lyricist, and the whole storm. With Shoharat, and especially with Khoon, she demands not just to be heard but to be reckoned with. And we’re more than ready to listen.
