What did Ed Sheeran say about “Sapphire”?
Sapphire was the first song I finished for Play that made me know where the album was heading. It’s why I finished the recording process in Goa surrounded by some of the best musicians in India. It was an incredibly creative process. I shot the music video with Liam Pethick and Nic Minns across my India tour earlier this year; we wanted to showcase the beauty and breadth of the country and its culture. The final jigsaw piece for me was getting Arijit Singh on the record. I’ll make a post about that in a few days, but it was a journey to get there and such an amazing day of music and family. Me and him have done a full Punjabi version of the song that will come out in the next few weeks, which has a lot more of him on it. This is the album version of the song, and my favourite song on the album. Hope you guys love it.

Behind the story of Ed Sheeran’s “Sapphire” song?
In 2024, Ed Sheeran was going through a tough time because he had lost his best friend, and on top of that, he was also dealing with a court case. That’s why he felt like making a joyful, happy-vibe song instead of a sad one—something colorful and uplifting. Around this time, Ed came to know about Arijit Singh, who also happened to have a live show in London. So, Sheeran met Arijit unexpectedly and talked to him about his song. After understanding Ed’s thoughts and vision, Arijit invited him to India so he could experience the country’s diversity and draw inspiration for the song.
Then in February 2025, Sheeran came to India with his father and visited Arijit Singh’s hometown, Murshidabad. There, the two of them discussed the song for five and a half hours, shot a few clips, and Arijit also helped Sheeran with writing the song. After that, Ed toured all over India, and the final shoot of the song took place in Goa. While sitting on a beach in Goa and gazing at the sky, Sheeran came up with the title of the song—Sapphire.
The turning point of the song came during the grand finale shoot in Mumbai, where global star Shah Rukh Khan made a surprise appearance and gave his visual contribution to the song—completely free of charge. And that’s how this song was made, beautifully showcasing the richness of Indian culture and diversity.
