Actor-director Basil Joseph’s upcoming Malayalam family-drama-comedy film ‘Falimy’ has unveiled its latest track ‘Manjeera Shinjitham’, an all out automatic foot-tapper.

‘Manjeera Shinjitham’, composed by Vishnu Vijay, is a rather experimental track, infusing elements of electronic, pop, classical, folk, film music, and some touches of rock to create an extremely unique and flavourful song which makes you just want to bob your head and sing along, even if you don’t know the language.

From the music video, it can be seen that Basil’s character is trying to get his romance working and is a love lost bird. He is constantly on the phone and is trying to get together with his girl, essayed by actress Raina Radhakrishan.

The vocals of Anthony Daasan and Vishnu Vijay carry with them, a very hypnotic and captivating feel. Instead of being glamorous or fashionable or swag-laden, or even just something very hip, their vocal performances are really rooted.

The song is carried as much by its melody and peppiness, as it is carried through the percussion rhythms, all of which are based on the groove created by the mridangam.

Another strong element that comes in at the chorus is the use of an entire choir, as the chorus is done with several people chiming in. It almost feels as if you are on the streets of Kerala, or any South Indian city for that matter and are just standing there seeing an everyday festival.
