Weddings are stressful. They are hectic, packed with people, and never without drama. This drama forms the basis of the story around which composer Mohammed Muneem aka Alif builds his latest single for Coke Studio Bharat, Kaya karie korimol. Its upbeat rhythms are underlaid with a traditional Kashmiri folk ethos that runs through its core.
Muneem should know. The writer-composer has been a distinct voice on the Indian indie music scene since 2008. Shuttling between Kashmir, Pune and Mumbai, he describes his journey as one driven by emotion — a factor that drove Kya karie korimol’s sound. While the song had been part of their rise in 2018, Muneem shared the latest version was built to tell a story.
