Raghav Chaitanya, born in October 1994 in Meerut, Uttar Pradesh, is an Indian playback singer celebrated for his soulful timbre and emotionally immersive delivery. After earning a degree in computer applications, he moved to Mumbai in 2015 to pursue music, initially building a fanbase through YouTube covers and independent originals. His breakthrough came in 2020 with the song “Ek Tukda Dhoop” from Thappad, earning him the Filmfare Award for Best Male Playback Singer—and marking him as the youngest ever winner in that category. Since then, Raghav has delivered major hits like “Dil” (Ek Villain Returns), “Hua Main” (Animal), and “Tum Se” (Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya), showcasing his expressive range and connection to cinematic narratives. In 2025, his track “Dil Ka Kya” from Metro… In Dino garnered critical attention, particularly as he appeared on-screen alongside composers Pritam and Papon. Known for blending acoustic warmth with emotional depth, Raghav continues to evolve as one of India’s most compelling young voices.
