Music lovers have a new anthem to vibe to, as Junglee Music (a division of Times Music) drops the first single “Salambala” from the much-awaited Tamil film Madharaasi. The song, composed by the sensational Anirudh Ravichander and voiced by rising singer Sai Abhyankar, was officially released on July 31 at 9 PM on the Junglee Music Tamil YouTube channel.

Starring Sivakarthikeyan, Rukmini Vasanth, and Vidyut Jammwal, Madharaasi marks the powerful combination of director AR Murugadoss and music director Anirudh, with Salambala setting the tone for what promises to be an adrenaline-charged film.

Packed with a high-voltage beat, catchy lyrics, and Sai Abhyankar’s energetic vocals, the song spins the idea of heartbreak into an empowering dance number. It’s also the eighth collaboration between Anirudh and Sivakarthikeyan, continuing their streak of musical hits.

Anirudh shared, “Salambala isn’t your usual breakup song. It’s got wild energy and unpredictability—exactly what working with SK and Murugadoss sir inspires.”

Director AR Murugadoss added, “This film runs on emotion and thrill. We needed a song that hits the gut but also makes people move. Anirudh nailed that.”

Mandar Thakur, CEO of Times Music, commented, “Anirudh and Sivakarthikeyan together are magic. Salambala is made to be on repeat—it grips you instantly.”

With its vibrant sound and dynamic video, “Salambala” is quickly catching attention across platforms. The full music video is now available on YouTube, and the track is streaming on all leading audio platforms. Madharaasi is slated to hit theaters on September 5, 2025.
