Dunali by Masoom Sharma, Ashu Twinkle

Dunali arrived from the Dunali album and quickly became one of the most replayed tracks of 2023. Amar Karnawala has a history of strong work, and the music on Dunali is among the most memorable of it.

Masoom Sharma, Ashu Twinkle delivers the lyrics with a nuance that turns an already strong song into something genuinely moving. a talented ensemble cast gave the film its soul, and Dunali is the song that most directly channels that feeling into music.

2023 was a strong year for Haryanvi music, and Dunali was among the reasons why. It fits the playlist for almost any occasion, which is rare — most songs have a narrow emotional window. This one does not.

The concision of Dunali — just 2:05 — is part of what makes it work. There is nothing here that should not be. It is, simply, one of the better songs to come from Haryanvi in recent memory — and the numbers agree.
