“Sapphire” follows previous Play singles “Azizam” and “Old Phone,” the latter of which dropped at the beginning of May. Arriving Sept. 12, the new album will serve as the first in Sheeran’s next series of LPs, marking a departure from his yearslong mathematics-themed saga.

Ed Sheeran embraces Indian culture in his new Punjabi track ‘Sapphire’, featuring Arijit Singh and glimpses of Shah Rukh Khan, shot during his recent India tour.

Arijit Singh not only lends his soulful voice and sitar skills to the track but also shares the screen with Ed Sheeran, blending East and West seamlessly.
