Qamaroli by Haris Azhari Pulingome

Haris Azhari Pulingome has delivered memorable performances before, but Qamaroli sits comfortably among the very best. The music, composed by Haris Azhari Pulingome, carries the song forward with a confidence that matches the performance.

The performance by Haris Azhari Pulingome is the centrepiece here — controlled where it needs to be, open where it counts. The story told by a talented ensemble cast in Qamaroli finds its musical expression here — Qamaroli is where the film's heart beats loudest.

2026 marked the release of Qamaroli, and Qamaroli was the track that ensured the album would be remembered. Listeners have described the experience of Qamaroli differently — romantic, melancholic, uplifting — which suggests the song is large enough to hold many truths.

Running to 5:10, the song is exactly as long as it needs to be, which is the hardest length for a songwriter to find. Songs like Qamaroli are the reason people fall in love with Malayalam music and never quite fall out of it.
