Punjirikyum by Nisam

The Punjirikyum album has several strong tracks, but Punjirikyum is the one most listeners come back to first. Credit goes to Nisam, Saleem Kodathoor for a score that understands exactly what the song needs and nothing more.

Nisam brings a warmth to Punjirikyum that no production choice could manufacture — it has to be felt, and here it is. Featuring a talented ensemble cast, the song carries the weight of the film's emotional arc and delivers it with conviction.

By the end of 2026, Punjirikyum had moved well beyond its original audience and into everyday playlists. It fits the playlist for almost any occasion, which is rare — most songs have a narrow emotional window. This one does not.

The concision of Punjirikyum — just 5:21 — is part of what makes it work. There is nothing here that should not be. The track stands as evidence that Nisam and Nisam, Saleem Kodathoor, working together, are capable of something well above the ordinary.
