Jannat by Somvir Kathurwal

Jannat arrived from the Jannat album and quickly became one of the most replayed tracks of 2021. Behind the melody is the work of B Praak, whose composition choices give Jannat its distinctive texture.

The vocal on Jannat is among the better performances Somvir Kathurwal has committed to record. 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.

2021 marked the release of Jannat, and Jannat was the track that ensured the album would be remembered. There is no right time to listen to Jannat. There is only the moment you press play and realise it was the right choice.

At 3:39, the track does not overstay its welcome — it says what it needs to say and leaves the listener wanting more. This is music that holds up — not because it is perfect, but because it is honest, and honesty in a song is irreplaceable.
