Indian singer Anuv Jain says he has finished new songs and could release more music before the end of 2026. He told BBC Newsbeat he had been selective about releases, putting out only one song a year until recently. He did not give a release date or commit to a number of new tracks. [1]

The interview took place as Jain prepared for the final European shows of his first world tour, ahead of a sold-out performance at London’s Roundhouse. He has built a following without Bollywood backing, which has traditionally offered Indian musicians funding and opportunities. BBC Newsbeat reports that he has more than 20 million monthly Spotify listeners and 3.9 million Instagram followers. It also says ‘Jo Tum Mere Ho’ and ‘Afsos’, his track with AP Dhillon, both reached number one on the Asian Music Charts. [1]

Jain said he was open to working with bigger stars if he could preserve his storytelling. He named Zayn Malik as someone whose work might fit his music, but announced no collaboration. [1]
