About This Song

Lo Maan Liya by Raahi from the 2018 Bollywood film Raazi is a hauntingly beautiful romantic song that has become a favourite among guitar players. The song uses a Capo on the 2nd fret, placing the open chord shapes in E Minor while sounding in the key of F# Minor as recorded. The chord movement — Em, D, CM7, Am, and Bm — creates that signature melancholic Bollywood feel. The CM7 chord (x32000) adds a sophisticated colour that sets this song apart from straightforward minor progressions. Start at a slow tempo (around 70 BPM) and focus on smooth transitions between Em and CM7. A popular request at JBX Music guitar classes in Mumbai.
