I was invited by Apple to create a playlist cover for Punjabi Romance, part of Apple Music Dynamics—an initiative to visually personalize top playlists and connect listeners more deeply to the music they love. This playlist, curated by Apple Music’s expert editors, celebrates the timeless essence of Punjabi love songs.

The brief drew inspiration from iconic Bollywood movie moments, particularly the dreamy vision of romance set against lush mustard fields of Punjab.
My goal was to create an artwork that felt colorful, vibrant, nostalgic, and deeply sentimental—much like the music itself.
From Concept to Canvas: Bringing Bollywood Nostalgia
to Life
I explored several sketched compositions, each reflecting an intimate moment between lovers lost in the fields of Punjab. After refining the concept, we arrived at the key visual: the delicate, unspoken connection between hands—slightly brushing, both shy and eager. The final artwork is a vivid portrayal of romance, featuring the bright blue sky, golden mustard fields, the iconic Phulkari dupatta flowing in the wind, and a quiet moment of touch that encapsulates the spirit of Punjabi love stories.
