“Nangeli Poove” from Malikappuram is a heartwarming ode to the precious bond between a father and daughter. Through his soulful lyrics, BK Harinarayanan paints a vivid portrait of paternal love and the bittersweet journey of watching one’s child grow up.
Rendered beautifully by singer Ranjin Raj, the harmonious composition touches the right emotional chords. Ranjin’s textured vocals infuse deep feelings into the thoughtful lyrics, evoking the tenderness of the father-daughter relationship. The minimal instrumentation of soft guitars and keys creates a gentle, lilting melody that tugs at the heartstrings.
In the moving music video, Ranjin sings soulfully as visuals capture the special moments between actor Unni Mukundan and his on-screen daughter. The serene coastal setting beautifully complements the tranquil vibe of the song.

Nangelipoove Kunnolam Mele Onnayi Povande
O, little flower, we gotta go all the way up the hill together.

Novilum Niravekidum Chiriyanu Neeyazhake
