Abbulish by Mausam Mukherjee

Few songs from 2024 have held their ground as well as Abbulish, a track that keeps finding new audiences. Rudra Sarkar built the instrumental foundation carefully here — every element earns its place in the mix.

The vocal on Abbulish is among the better performances Mausam Mukherjee has committed to record. The connection between Promith, Sudipa and this song is part of what makes it resonate beyond the film itself.

The 2024 release gave fans something to hold onto — a track built for repeated listening rather than a single play. There is no right time to listen to Abbulish. There is only the moment you press play and realise it was the right choice.

Running to 3:05, the song is exactly as long as it needs to be, which is the hardest length for a songwriter to find. Abbulish has earned its place in the catalogue of Bengali music that genuinely matters. The listeners who found it early already knew.
