Masoom Sharma

Who is Masoom Sharma?

Masoom Sharma is one of the most consistent and popular voices in Haryanvi pop, a regional movement that has grown into some of the most-watched music in India. Born in 1991 in Jind, Haryana, he has built a huge following by fusing traditional Haryanvi folk with contemporary pop and hip-hop production.

Rise to fame

He broke through in 2014 with "Kothe Chad Lalkaru" and went on to stack up viral hits — including "2 Numbari", "Chand" and "Madam Ji" — each pulling enormous view counts on YouTube and helping push Haryanvi music well beyond its home state into the national mainstream. Year after year, his releases have become fixtures on India's regional music charts, and his collaborations with other Haryanvi singers and rappers have widened the scene's reach still further. That sustained run, rather than any single hit, is what has made him one of the genre's most bankable names.

Sound and themes

Masoom Sharma's music is grounded and unmistakably local: high-energy songs about pride, loyalty, romance and rural life, delivered with the swagger and melody of Haryanvi folk but produced for a modern, streaming-and-reels audience. That authenticity is a big part of why his songs travel so far.

Recent work

In 2026 he released Main Vohe, a grounded "stay true to your roots" anthem whose title translates roughly as "I'm still the same" — a theme that runs through much of his work.

Part of a bigger wave

Masoom Sharma's success sits within the wider surge of regional and desi music reshaping Indian pop in the 2020s, where singing in one's mother tongue has become a selling point rather than a ceiling.
