Drum by Nijjar, Simran Choudhary

Drum arrived from the His Story album and quickly became one of the most replayed tracks of 2024. The arrangement here is the work of Nijjar, and it shows genuine craft in how it builds and releases.

The voice of Nijjar, Simran Choudhary carries Drum effortlessly, which is the highest compliment a song can give its singer. The story told by a talented ensemble cast in His Story finds its musical expression here — Drum is where the film's heart beats loudest.

2024 marked the release of His Story, and Drum was the track that ensured the album would be remembered. Listeners have described the experience of Drum differently — romantic, melancholic, uplifting — which suggests the song is large enough to hold many truths.

The concision of Drum — just 2:38 — is part of what makes it work. There is nothing here that should not be. The staying power of Drum is not a mystery. It is just what happens when every element of a song is exactly right.
