"Meri Aashiqui" is the title-bearing duet of Aashiqui 2 (T-Series, April 2013), led by Palak Muchhal with Arijit Singh, composed by Mithoon with lyrics by Irshad Kamil. Built around the film's love-theme melody — the musical signature that runs through the whole soundtrack — it is the album's statement piece: the song that carries the franchise's name and its idea of love as devotion bordering on worship. Mithoon's arrangement gives Palak Muchhal the spotlight in one of her earliest lead vocals, with Arijit Singh answering, and the interplay turns the title — "my love", or more precisely "my way of loving" — into a back-and-forth pledge. It stands with "Tum Hi Ho" as Mithoon's twin contribution to the album's sound.
Meri Aashiqui Hindi Lyrics
Original (Hindi) version
[Intro]
तू मुझे छोड़ जाए
यह नहीं हो सकता, साथिया
मेरी बातों में तेरा ज़िक्र सदा
मेरी याद में तेरी फ़िक्र सदा
मैं जो भी हूँ तुम ही तो हो
मुझे तुम से मिली अपनी अदा
[Chorus]
क्यूँकि तुम ही हो, अब तुम ही हो
ज़िंदगी अब तुम ही हो..
चैन भी, मेरा दर्द भी
मेरी आशिक़ी अब तुम ही हो
तुम ही हो, तुम ही हो
अर्ज़ भी, मेरा मर्ज़ भी
चैन भी, मेरा दर्द भी
मेरी आशिक़ी अब तुम ही हो
[Verse 1]
तेरे लिए ही जिया मैं
खुद को जो यूँ दे दिया है
तेरी वफ़ा ने मुझको संभाला
सारे ग़मों को दिल से निकाला
मैं जो मिट भी गया तो वजूद मेरा
सदा तुझ में रहे ज़िंदा
[Chorus]
क्यूँ कि तुम ही हो, अब तुम ही हो
कि ज़िंदगी अब तुम ही हो.. वो ओ..
चैन भी, मेरा दर्द भी
मेरी आशिक़ी अब तुम ही हो
तुम ही हो, तुम ही हो
कर्ज़ भी, मेरा मर्ज़ भी
चैन भी, मेरा दर्द भी
मेरी आशिक़ी अब तुम ही हो
Romanized version
[Intro]
Tu mujhe chhod jaaye
Yeh nahi ho sakta, saathiya
Meri baaton mein tera zikr sadaa
Meri yaad mein teri fikr sadaa
Main jo bhi hoon tum hi to ho
Mujhe tum se mili apni adaa
[Chorus]
Kyunki tum hi ho, ab tum hi ho
Zindagi ab tum hi ho..
Chain bhi, mera dard bhi
Meri aashiqui ab tum hi ho
Tum hi ho, tum hi ho
Arz bhi, mera marz bhi
Chain bhi, mera dard bhi
Meri aashiqui ab tum hi ho
[Verse 1]
Tere liye hi jiya main
Khud ko jo yun de diya hai
Teri wafa ne mujhko sambhala
Saare ghamon ko dil se nikaala
Main jo mit bhi gaya tto wajood mera
Sadaa tujh mein rahe zinda
[Chorus]
Kyun ki tum hi ho, abb tum hi ho
Ki zindagi abb tum hi ho.. woh o..
Chain bhi, mera dard bhi
Meri aashiqui abb tum hi ho
Tum hi ho, tum hi ho
Karz bhi, mera marz bhi
Chain bhi, mera dard bhi
Meri aashiqui ab tum hi ho

💭 Meaning of "Meri Aashiqui" Song Lyrics
Meaning of "Meri Aashiqui"
"Aashiqui" is more than "love" — it is love as a practice, a devotion, almost a vocation; "Meri Aashiqui" means "my love" in that consuming sense. The lyric has each singer offer their aashiqui to the other as the truest thing they own, turning the title of the franchise into a personal pledge passed back and forth between the two voices.
Irshad Kamil's writing keeps the register elevated — closer to the Urdu romantic tradition than to conversational pop — which suits a song whose job is to state the film's thesis: that this kind of love is worth everything it costs.

Cultural Context
As the song bearing the franchise name, "Meri Aashiqui" had symbolic weight: Aashiqui (1990) was the film that built T-Series' music empire, and its 2013 sequel's soundtrack was consciously positioned as a generational handover. Giving the title song's lead to a young Palak Muchhal — opposite the breaking-out Arijit Singh, over Mithoon's theme — was that handover in miniature: new voices carrying the label's most storied romantic brand.
