Mumbai-based singer-songwriter Kamakshi Khanna, known for her introspective and powerful lyrics, has once again delivered quite the offering with her latest single, the striking “Love Is Not A Fucking Game.” This bold and unapologetic track marks the first release from her upcoming second studio EP and serves as a poignant commentary on the complexities of modern romance.
Through “Love Is Not A Fucking Game,” Khanna delves into the pain and frustration of being taken for granted in a relationship. Through raw emotion and unflinching honesty, she confronts the mind games, mixed signals, and power struggles that often accompany the pursuit of love in today’s world. With its biting lyrics and haunting melody, the song resonates deeply with listeners who have experienced similar struggles in their own love lives.
Accompanying the release of the single is a visually stunning music video directed by Vasudha Rungta and animated by Rahul Unadkat and Crispin Cardoz. Through metaphor and symbolism, the video vividly depicts the emotional journey of a woman trapped in a video game, struggling to break free from the manipulative tactics of her partner. As she navigates through levels of increasing intensity, she ultimately comes to the realization that love should never feel like a conquest. With its powerful imagery and thought-provoking narrative, the music video serves as a fitting companion to the song’s themes of empowerment and self-discovery.
Khanna’s collaborators on “Love Is Not A Fucking Game” include Pranay Parti, who produced the track, as well as Karun Kannampilly on drums, Adil Kurwa on bass, and Sounak Saha on guitar. Together, they bring Khanna’s vision to life with their impeccable musicianship and attention to detail.
With her fearless approach to songwriting and her unwavering commitment to authenticity, Khanna has solidified her status as a leading voice in the indie music scene. “Love Is Not A Fucking Game” is not just a song—it’s a declaration of independence, a rallying cry for anyone who has ever felt trapped in a toxic relationship. And with Khanna leading the way, listeners can rest assured that they are in good hands.
