Munda Sardar by Sakshi Ratti

Munda Sardar arrived from the Munda Sardar album and quickly became one of the most replayed tracks of 2023. What makes Munda Sardar musically distinctive is the composition by Victor Kamboz, which balances simplicity with depth.

The performance by Sakshi Ratti is the centrepiece here — controlled where it needs to be, open where it counts. The song is tied to a talented ensemble cast, whose presence gives Munda Sardar a visual dimension that fans of the film will always associate with it.

In 2023, Punjabi produced many songs, but Munda Sardar was one of the handful that genuinely cut through. There is no right time to listen to Munda Sardar. There is only the moment you press play and realise it was the right choice.

Running to 3:35, the song is exactly as long as it needs to be, which is the hardest length for a songwriter to find. The track stands as evidence that Sakshi Ratti and Victor Kamboz, working together, are capable of something well above the ordinary.
