Ennenkilum by Krishnakumar

When Krishnakumar recorded Ennenkilum, something special happened in the studio — and listeners have felt it ever since. Ashir Vadakara sets the tone from the very first bar — it is clear from the opening notes that this song means business.

Krishnakumar's vocal here has a quality that is difficult to describe but impossible to miss — it simply feels true. For fans of a talented ensemble cast, Ennenkilum is one of those songs that immediately conjures specific scenes and emotions.

2020 marked the release of Ennenkilum, and Ennenkilum was the track that ensured the album would be remembered. Some music is background. Ennenkilum demands attention — not aggressively, but in the way a good conversation does.

The concision of Ennenkilum — just 4:15 — is part of what makes it work. There is nothing here that should not be. For anyone yet to hear Ennenkilum, the experience ahead is a good one. For those returning, it will be as good as they remember.
