Ario Nahavandi (Persian: آریو نهاوندی) (Born 1 July 1996[1]) formerly known as Sajjad Nahavandi (Persian: سجاد نهاوندی) is an Iranian Singer, songwriter, Actor, Social media Influencer and Product Designer based in London, United Kingdom.[2]
Early life
[edit]Ario Nahavandi was born in Tehran, Iran.[3] Due to his parents' professional commitments, his family frequently relocated, allowing him to experience life in various countries during his childhood, including Armenia, Denmark, Saudi Arabia, China, and Finland. [4][5]
His artistic journey began at a young age, writing lyrics and sharing self-released music through social media, which earned him considerable attention.[6][7] Known for his profound lyrics that explore themes of love , life, and societal issues.[8][9]
Career
[edit]A significant highlight of Ario Nahavandi's career is his Persian rendition of the iconic Italian protest folk song "Bella Ciao."[10] Originally from the late 19th century, this song has been repurposed by various movements advocating for social justice.[11][12] Ario's version has become a powerful symbol of the struggle for women's rights and freedom, inspiring many to advocate for equality and fundamental human rights in some eastern countries. [13][14]
In his recent single, Khoshe Haye Dard ("The Grapes of Pain")[15], Ario poignantly addresses mental health issues, focusing specifically on depression. [16] [17]The song aims to raise awareness and foster dialogue about mental health struggles, reflecting his commitment to using music as a platform for social change. [18][19]
In 2024, Ario Nahavandi sang and wrote two contemporary-style songs, "Lan Tarani" (Persian: لن ترانی)[20] and "One's Own Law," (Persian: قانون خویش) [21]which incorporate poetry from Rumi's Divan-I Kebir. [22]This work exemplifies Rumi's mystical thought, expressing profound love for the beloved (often interpreted as God or the divine).[23] Through these songs, Ario aims to keep the rich Persian literature alive among the younger generation, blending traditional themes with contemporary music styles.[24]
Ario Nahavandi has shown interest in acting through various self-tapes and has entered the acting world, appearing in several productions, including the BBC documentary series High: Surviving a Dubai Drugs Bust.[25][26]
