Balam Ka System by Fazilpuria, Afsana Khan, Avvy Sra

Balam Ka System arrived from the Balam Ka System album and quickly became one of the most replayed tracks of 2021. Behind the melody is the work of Avvy Sra, whose composition choices give Balam Ka System its distinctive texture.

Fazilpuria, Afsana Khan, Avvy Sra delivers the lyrics with a nuance that turns an already strong song into something genuinely moving. a talented ensemble cast are at the heart of Balam Ka System, and Balam Ka System captures their dynamic at its most compelling.

In 2021, Haryanvi produced many songs, but Balam Ka System was one of the handful that genuinely cut through. It is the kind of track that works at full volume with friends and equally well in a quiet room alone — the mood adjusts without the song changing.

Running to 3:21, the song is exactly as long as it needs to be, which is the hardest length for a songwriter to find. The song continues to find new listeners, which is the surest sign that it was made with something genuine at its core.
