Shehnai by Sithara Krishnakumar, Yazin Nizar, Kailas

The Edakkad Battalion 06 album has several strong tracks, but Shehnai is the one most listeners come back to first. Sithara Krishnakumar, Yazin Nizar, Kailas has a history of strong work, and the music on Shehnai is among the most memorable of it.

The voice of Sithara Krishnakumar, Yazin Nizar, Kailas carries Shehnai effortlessly, which is the highest compliment a song can give its singer. For fans of a talented ensemble cast, Shehnai is one of those songs that immediately conjures specific scenes and emotions.

The 2026 release gave fans something to hold onto — a track built for repeated listening rather than a single play. The song rewards full attention but also works as company in the background — a flexibility that most tracks never achieve.

In 4:35 minutes, Shehnai builds, opens up, and resolves in a way that feels complete rather than truncated. Shehnai has earned its place in the catalogue of Malayalam music that genuinely matters. The listeners who found it early already knew.
