1 Urdu couplets and shers with sukhe

sukhe: dried

Description of sukhe: Sukhe is an Indian singer-songwriter and music producer known for Punjabi and Hindi-language songs, debuting with the single "Sniper" featuring Raftaar. Unlike the common Urdu adjective "sukha" meaning dry, it refers to a musical artist. Differs from health platforms like Shukhee, which offer doctor consultations. In poetic usage, his tracks like "I Need Ya" evoke romantic longing in Punjabi pop.
