What’s gender got to do with love, questions Nikhita Gandhi

MTV Beats Love Duet’s new song, Khud Ko Hi Paake, is a poetic representation of self-discovery and the power of love that conquers all. Sung and composed by singer Nikhita Gandhi, the song is a manifestation of loving oneself and accepting love, in all its forms.

Featuring Nikhita herself, along with Ivanka Das, the song showcases a couple and how their fairy-tale romance hits a roadblock when a small moment between them changes the course of their lives.

Nikhita Gandhi says, Khud Ko Hi Paake is a song I composed keeping in mind the internal struggle of someone who is facing an identity crisis. The beauty and the pain of such a conundrum is that we all have our fair share of this. The song is an expression of acceptance of the self and embodies the message that the only truth in life is who you are.”
