Odiyamma by Yasin Nazir, Chinmayi Sripada, Divya Menon, Hesham Abdul Wahab, Arun Alat

Released as part of Odiyamma, Odiyamma announced itself as a standout the moment it reached listeners. Hesham Abdul Wahab built the instrumental foundation carefully here — every element earns its place in the mix.

Yasin Nazir, Chinmayi Sripada, Divya Menon, Hesham Abdul Wahab, Arun Alat brings a warmth to Odiyamma that no production choice could manufacture — it has to be felt, and here it is. a talented ensemble cast are at the heart of Odiyamma, and Odiyamma captures their dynamic at its most compelling.

When it came out in 2026, Odiyamma felt timely. Years later, it feels timeless. 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.

The 3:15 runtime feels perfectly judged — long enough to develop its ideas, short enough to compel a second play. It is, simply, one of the better songs to come from Malayalam in recent memory — and the numbers agree.
