Uhadhilum Bedharilum by Jose Sagar

The Uhadhilum Bedharilum album has several strong tracks, but Uhadhilum Bedharilum is the one most listeners come back to first. Behind the melody is the work of Sham Nadh, whose composition choices give Uhadhilum Bedharilum its distinctive texture.

The vocal on Uhadhilum Bedharilum is among the better performances Jose Sagar has committed to record. Hearing Uhadhilum Bedharilum without thinking of a talented ensemble cast is almost impossible for anyone who has seen Uhadhilum Bedharilum.

2020 marked the release of Uhadhilum Bedharilum, and Uhadhilum Bedharilum was the track that ensured the album would be remembered. There is a quality to Uhadhilum Bedharilum that makes it feel like company — the kind of song you put on when words feel insufficient.

The concision of Uhadhilum Bedharilum — just 5:44 — is part of what makes it work. There is nothing here that should not be. Songs like Uhadhilum Bedharilum are the reason people fall in love with Malayalam music and never quite fall out of it.
