The makers of Mohanlal’s highly anticipated Pan-Indian film Vrusshabha have officially kick-started their musical campaign with the release of its first song, ‘Appa’. Touted as the soul of the film, the track beautifully captures the timeless and pure bond between a father and son — a relationship that forms the emotional backbone of Vrusshabha.
Composed by Sam CS, the song features heartfelt vocals by Vijai Prakash in Hindi, Kannada, and Telugu, and Madhu Balakrishnan in Malayalam. The lyrics have been penned by Vinayak Shashikumar (Malayalam), Kalyan Chakravarthy Tripuraneni (Telugu), Kartik Kush (Hindi), and Nagarjun Sharma (Kannada), each bringing a unique cultural flavor while staying true to the shared emotional essence. The music is presented under T-Series, setting the stage for what promises to be one of the biggest cinematic events of the year.
The film, directed by Nanda Kishore and headlined by Mohanlal, is gearing up for a worldwide release on December 25, 2025. Across all platforms, the song is being promoted with the caption: “Presenting Vrusshabha’s first video song #Appa, a soulful father-son track, the soul of the film.”

Director Nanda Kishore opened up on why ‘Appa’ leads the musical journey and said, “We wanted to begin the musical journey of Vrusshabha with ‘Appa’ because the entire film is rooted in the powerful, emotional relationship between a father and son. This song perfectly reflects the heartbeat of the story and gives the audience a true sense of what the film stands for. Sam CS has created something wonderful, and I’m grateful for the depth he brought to this track. This is just the beginning, as more music and moments unfold, people will understand the soul of this film even more. Stories about fathers are often left untold, and this one deserved to be heard and felt.”
Music Director Sam CS too spoke about composing ‘Appa’, he added, “When Nanda narrated the father-son emotion in Vrusshabha, it immediately connected with me. ‘Appa’ didn’t feel like composing a song; it felt like touching something personal and familiar. And when you have Mohanlal sir at the heart of that emotion, the responsibility becomes even bigger. His presence brings a certain depth, a weight that you can feel even while creating the music. We kept the track very honest because that’s what the story needed, and that’s what Mohanlal sir’s performance inspires. Nanda’s clarity made it easy for me to find the right tone, and I just followed that emotion. I hope people feel the warmth and truth of that bond when they hear ‘Appa’. This is just a small glimpse of the world we’re building in the film.”
