The remix of the Malayalam indie hit that put Money Verse Records on the national map, re-cut around Shreya Ghoshal’s vocal and a new performance by Saniya Iyappan. Released 1 July 2026, it passed 300 million views on YouTube within four months.

The edit had to hold two things at once: the original track’s swagger and a classical, jewelled register that the new vocal brought in. Cuts sit on the tabla, not the kick. Performance takes were chosen for the eyes first.

Shambu joined the edit team for the additional cut: alternate structure passes, performance selects and the social cutdowns that carried the song onto Reels.
