Dhadkana by Gurnam Bhullar, Himanshu Sharma

Not every song from Ishqa'n De Lekhe lingers, but Dhadkana is the one that stays. The music, composed by Himanshu Sharma, Gurnam Bhullar, carries the song forward with a confidence that matches the performance.

The performance by Gurnam Bhullar, Himanshu Sharma is the centrepiece here — controlled where it needs to be, open where it counts. The story told by a talented ensemble cast in Ishqa'n De Lekhe finds its musical expression here — Dhadkana is where the film's heart beats loudest.

2026 was a strong year for Punjabi music, and Dhadkana was among the reasons why. 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.

The 3:12 runtime feels perfectly judged — long enough to develop its ideas, short enough to compel a second play. Dhadkana is a reminder that the best music does not need to announce itself. It only needs to be heard.
