For Kalyani Priyadarshan, collaborating with Divine on their latest release ‘You & I’ — already trending widely — was a creatively fulfilling experience that built naturally on the momentum of her previous song, ‘Kiliye Kiliye’. Both tracks highlighted her groovier, rhythmic side, but ‘You & I’ also carried a personal significance she hadn’t anticipated.

“Collaborating with Divine was truly an honour,” Kalyani shared. She has admired his craft for years — the honesty, the raw emotion, and the way his music resonates because it comes directly from his experiences. “His work comes straight from his heart and experiences, and that honesty is what makes it so powerful,” she added.

What stood out to Kalyani most was the trust Divine places in the people he collaborates with. Being part of that circle made the experience feel intimate and genuinely appreciated. “He works with people he trusts, and being included in that creative circle for this video meant a lot to me. I’m genuinely grateful for the opportunity. He is an artist I truly love and admire.”

For Kalyani, ‘You & I’ is more than just another upbeat track following ‘Kiliye Kiliye’ — it represents respect, creative synchronicity, and the joy of making authentic music with an artist she has long admired.
