Umma song

' of the recently released movie 'Mudhugauv', directed by Vipin Das.

The song composed by Rahul Raj and penned by Manu Manjith, have been going viral on social networking sites. The duo is quite elated about its success. Talking about the effort that went behind, Manu says, 'We followed the rhythm of the famed mappila pattu, 'samkritha pamagari'. It was Vipin's idea to put together a song that would easily help the audience connect with the Thenmavin Kombathu movie. So, I collected all the words that are used in the yesteryear movie and picked words like Sree Hali, Karthumbi and a few others to weave into the track. The song reflects the theme of Mudhugauv."
