Arijit Singh’s team clarified that he has not returned to playback singing and is only completing projects signed before his retirement.

The release of ‘Yeh Awarapan,’ one of the songs from Awarapan 2, led many fans to wonder whether Arijit Singh had reversed his decision to retire from playback singing. However, the singer’s team has now clarified that he has not made a comeback and is only fulfilling commitments made before his retirement announcement earlier this year.

According to The Print, Arijit Singh’s manager dismissed the speculation, stating that the singer is not taking up new playback projects.

“He is just completing the projects that were finalised before the retirement was announced. Arijit isn’t doing a comeback in playback singing. These are old commitments,” the manager told the publication.
