“Tere Bina”, or “Without You” is Shreea Kaul’s new song. Tapping into Afrobeats, Kaul explores a new genre on a song about being unable to live without her lover. As usual, Kaul embeds her Indian roots – this time by incorporating syllables of “dhoom”, “dha”, “dhin”, “tin”, “ta”, “na”. These syllables are prominent in all kinds of Indian classical arts. They originate from the tabla, mimicking the sounds of the Indian drum/percussion instrument. These syllables are also used to improvise in vocal music and are used to count in different dance styles.

Shreea first teased the track in a TikTok on September 1, 2023. The audio snippet of a demo version of the first verse and pre-chorus and two accompanying space/galaxy-themed artworks were posted. As longtime fans and newcomers praised the catchy tune, further promotion continued, until a sudden halt in early October, most likely to give way for the current, ongoing Palestinian genocide. She resumed promotion on socials in late December-early January until its release on January 31. “Tere Bina” went viral in India and found success with audiences there.
