Yanabi by Mufthi Mubarak

Not every song from Yanabi lingers, but Yanabi is the one that stays. The music, composed by Mufthi Mubarak, carries the song forward with a confidence that matches the performance.

The vocal on Yanabi is among the better performances Mufthi Mubarak has committed to record. a talented ensemble cast gave the film its soul, and Yanabi is the song that most directly channels that feeling into music.

In 2026, Malayalam produced many songs, but Yanabi was one of the handful that genuinely cut through. 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 10:56 runtime feels perfectly judged — long enough to develop its ideas, short enough to compel a second play. Yanabi is a reminder that the best music does not need to announce itself. It only needs to be heard.
