Introduction
Rihaa is the sixth-episode song of I-Popstar Hindi Vol. 2, and it shows Anmol Salh doing everything himself — singing, composing and writing. Released on October 10, 2026 on the Saregama Music channel, this heartbreak track crossed 1.36 million views within its first week, and its dark, cinematic sound made it one of the season's most talked-about performances. On Muxic Leaks, we bring you the story of the song, its full credits, the meaning behind its words and the official video. This Muxic Leaks guide covers everything you need to know about Rihaa.
The Song
Rihaa is a heartbreak song about love's separation, sung in Punjabi. The word 'rihaa' suggests release — and the song reads like a lover asking for freedom from pain, or begging for the mercy he is not getting. 'Ishq bichhode raas aaye mainu' — separation from love has suited me — sets the mood: this is a song about the grief that follows when love breaks. Like his earlier episode song Judaai, Anmol Salh keeps the language raw and direct, and the result feels like a personal confession.
The Artist
Anmol Salh is one of the breakout voices of I-Popstar Hindi Vol. 2, and Rihaa is proof of why. He sings, composes and writes the song himself, giving it a single, unbroken emotional voice — the pain in the words is the pain in the melody. His gritty, film-ready delivery has made listeners call him Bollywood material in the video's comments, and Rihaa is the performance that sealed that reputation.
The Music Video
The official video of Rihaa premiered on October 10, 2026 on the Saregama Music YouTube channel, crossing 1.36 million views within its first week. Presented as Episode 6 of I-Popstar Hindi Vol. 2 — the series streaming on the Alright TV app and Netflix — the video puts Anmol Salh's intense performance at the centre with moody, cinematic staging. You can watch it in the section below.

Rihaa is released by Saregama India Ltd, one of India's oldest and biggest music labels. The label presents the complete music of I-Popstar Hindi Vol. 2, and Anmol Salh's episode songs — Judaai and now Rihaa — have been among its biggest streaming hits.

English Translation
Meaning
Rihaa is a song about the aftermath of a broken love. The singer tells himself that separation from love has 'suited' him — a brave face over a broken heart — while asking why his dreams were shattered and anger was shown instead of tenderness. The plea 'Kare Khuda, Khuda mainu' — may God grant me — turns the song into a prayer for release from the pain. On Muxic Leaks, we read the track as a heartbreak anthem: love lost, grief carried, and a soul begging heaven for peace. Anmol Salh's raw, unpolished singing makes the ache feel lived-in rather than performed.
