Behind the Music: Composer Rohit Kohli and Lyricist Manoj Muntashir on ‘Muskura Do’

Creating a family‑centric song for a thriller like Dhrishyam: The Conclusion posed a unique challenge for composer Rohit Kohli. He wanted a tune that felt warm yet simple, providing a breathing space for viewers amidst the film’s tension. Kohli said the melody needed to convey “home” without sounding clichéd.

Lyricist Manoj Muntashir approached the task by focusing on everyday moments that define familial bonds. He deliberately avoided theatrical language, opting for lines that read like a genuine conversation between relatives. According to Muntashir, the goal was to make the song feel as close to real life as possible.

Lucky Ali’s vocal delivery completed the puzzle. His natural, slightly husky tone added a layer of authenticity, allowing the lyrics and composition to shine without artificial embellishment. The collaborative effort results in a track that stands out as a heartfelt interlude in a high‑octane narrative.

Industry observers note that this approach marks a departure from “Wingansa,” the film’s first song, which leaned heavily on a dark, revenge‑driven vibe. “Muskura Do” showcases the versatility of the franchise’s musical direction.
