Premika Meaning | प्रेमिका

Premika or Premikaa (प्रेमिका) is a Hindi word which can actually be used for 'lover' or 'beloved', as per the context. It comes from Hindi word 'prem' which means love, and a guy who loves someone is called a 'premi.' At the same time, the girl who may just be a beloved can also be called premikaa, though the word is more often used for someone who is in love as well, and is a lover.

So in essence, premika is mostly 'lover,' but can be used for 'beloved' at times.

Geruaa / Gerua Meaning | गेरुआ

To begin with, Geruaa is a color. The red-ochre color, somewhat reddish, yellowish orange, or a shade of pink to an extent. It comes from the Hindi word geru/ geroo, which means nothing but red ochre, or in some regions, the red soil, which is rich in iron oxides.

However, here the significance of geruaa is a bit different. Geruaa is generally considered a color worn by sages and hermits, and thus, here symbolizes people who have left everything to find the One they are looking for. The word geruaa in the song rang de tu mohe geruaa, thus, gives a kind of sufi touch to the it, as the lovers here want to get colored ‘geruaa' like someone who has left the worldly things, and just be in love.

Btw, the orangish color you see along with the black in the picture below, that is Gerua.

Aa Bhi Ja Tu Kahin se Aa Bhi Jaa Lyrics Translation | Sonu Nigam

Music: Jeet Ganguli
Lyrics: Manoj Muntashir
Singer: Sonu Nigam
Music Label: T-Series

After a few years of a complex relationship with India's biggest music label, Sonu Nigam is back for a song (and before that a Gulshan Kumar tribute program) to the place where he started his career. The song aa bhi jaa, composed by Jeet Gannguli, has a feeling that was there in Sonu Nigam's '90s' albums, Deewana, Jaan and Yaad. And while the song may not be an instant hit, given time, it does grow on you. Personally, I am missing the rest 7 songs that used to be there in a typical Sonu Nigam album, as this one is just a single.
