About This Song

Khamoshiyan (Title Song) by Arijit Singh from the 2015 film of the same name is one of Arijit Singh's most atmospheric guitar songs. In D Minor with no capo, the song uses Dm, F, Am, Gm, Bb, and C — a rich collection of minor-key chords that creates the song's haunting, echoing quality. The verse alternates Dm/F and Am/Gm patterns, while the pre-chorus climbs through Bb/Bb and C/A. The chorus resolves with Bb/Bb, C/F, creating that signature Arijit Singh emotional surge. The bridge uses Dm/Gm and C/F for added depth. No capo needed — all chords in standard position. An intermediate favourite at JBX Music guitar classes in Mumbai.
