If I Die by Guri Lahoria, Devilo

Not every song from If I Die lingers, but If I Die is the one that stays. Gagandeep Singh has a history of strong work, and the music on If I Die is among the most memorable of it.

Guri Lahoria, Devilo understood what this song required and delivered it without excess — the restraint itself becomes the emotion. On screen, a talented ensemble cast bring the emotional world of the song to life in a way that enhances rather than competes with the music.

The song dates from 2022, but nothing about it sounds dated — the emotions it captures are not tied to a moment. 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.

At 3:06, the track does not overstay its welcome — it says what it needs to say and leaves the listener wanting more. It is, simply, one of the better songs to come from Punjabi in recent memory — and the numbers agree.
