TM Talent Management has announced an exclusive management partnership with Faheem Abdullah, the Kashmiri singer-songwriter, poet, and filmmaker who has emerged as one of India’s most-streamed artists globally. With over 29 million monthly Spotify listeners, Abdullah ranks among the country’s leading digital-first voices.
Abdullah first broke through with his single Jhelum before delivering chart-topping tracks such as Saiyaara, his Bollywood debut and the highest-charting Indian song on international charts and Ishq, part of his acclaimed 14-track album Lost; Found. Known for blending Kashmiri identity with contemporary soundscapes, Abdullah’s music bridges traditional roots with modern experimentation. His catalog has positioned him as both an independent artist and a cinematic voice with mainstream impact.
Reflecting on the new chapter, Abdullah said: “I am really excited to start off this journey with TM Talent Management. I always knew that this is where I will be heard and understood. And given my long-term association with TM Ventures, this is homecoming.”
With a career that blends independent artistry and mainstream impact, Abdullah’s music is rooted in Kashmiri identity while also appealing to a global audience. His catalog combines lyrical storytelling with contemporary production, making him one of the few artists from India to achieve scale across both domestic and international streaming markets.
Welcoming him to the roster, Alaap Gosher, Co-Founder & CEO of TM Ventures Pvt. Ltd., commented: “We’re thrilled to welcome Faheem Abdullah to TM Talent Management family exclusively. Faheem’s artistry and spirit are truly exceptional, and he represents the kind of bold talent we’re passionate about championing.

This partnership is about growth, exploration, and unlocking Faheem’s full potential in India and beyond — and we’re excited to embark on this journey together.”
The collaboration is expected to focus on expanding Abdullah’s footprint in live touring, cross-border collaborations, and brand associations, while preserving the authenticity that has defined his journey so far. TM Ventures noted that the signing is not just about building a career but shaping an enduring legacy that can inspire a new generation of artists.
