 *Anthony Daasan's Tamil Indie soup song “Ponaaley Ponaaley” – A Soulful Yet Sarcastic Take on Breakups out on May 28th*

Following the success of its breakout Tamil indie hit Kadhal Oothikichu, Swan Studios returns with its second original single, Ponaaley Ponaaley —a refreshingly raw and witty portrayal of heartbreak that blends soulful emotion with sharp satire.

At its core, Ponaaley Ponaaley captures the tumultuous emotional aftermath of a breakup. Told through the lens of a boy who seeks solace by asking his performer friend to turn his heartache into music, the narrative resonates universally—speaking to anyone who’s ever given their all in love, only to be left behind.

Musically, the song is a vibrant fusion of spiritual undertones and folk dance elements, composed and arranged by Keerthan. The lyrics, penned by Santhosh, are laced with sarcasm and irony, reflecting a clever yet cathartic commentary on romantic loss. Vocal powerhouse Anthony Daasan lends his signature grit and passion to the track, making it an unforgettable auditory experience.

Visually, Ponaaley Ponaaley is a cinematic journey. Directed and conceptualized by Santhosh, the music video is set in a moody, stylized world and explores the protagonist’s past, present, and imagined future. With breathtaking visuals by cinematographer Nagesh V Acharya and crisp, emotionally precise editing by acclaimed editor Suresh Urs, the video delivers a layered and immersive storytelling experience.

Ponaaley Ponaaley will be released on May 28, 2025, at 6:30 PM IST on the Swan Studios Official YouTube Channel, with audio streaming available simultaneously on Spotify, JioSaavn, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, and all major platforms.

With Ponaaley Ponaaley, Swan Studios reaffirms its commitment to original, high-quality Tamil independent music that speaks to the soul—through story, sound, and style.
