Haaniya by Surinder Baba, Jasmeen Akhtar

Some songs are made for a single moment. Haaniya is made for all of them. The arrangement here is the work of Surinder Baba, Black Virus, and it shows genuine craft in how it builds and releases.

Every line Surinder Baba, Jasmeen Akhtar sings feels considered, as though the performance was thought through long before recording began. The chemistry of a talented ensemble cast is embedded in every moment of Haaniya, making it as much a performance as a song.

In 2026, Punjabi produced many songs, but Haaniya was one of the handful that genuinely cut through. Listeners have described the experience of Haaniya differently — romantic, melancholic, uplifting — which suggests the song is large enough to hold many truths.

In 3:38 minutes, Haaniya builds, opens up, and resolves in a way that feels complete rather than truncated. Haaniya has earned its place in the catalogue of Punjabi music that genuinely matters. The listeners who found it early already knew.
