Yuvan Shankar Raja’s U1 Records has been briskly involved in the gesture of introducing new musical talents. The latest talent to get embellished through U1 Records is Dr. Shani Hafees’s “Marupiranthaal” (Her Rebirth), which has musical score by Yeldho P. John and lyrics penned by Ruxeena Musthafa and the mother and daughter duo Dr. Shani Hafees & Reyah Fatima on vocals. Dr. Shani Hafees holds additional credits of creating the concept, script and production. The video is directed by Adarsh N Krishna and Shani Hafees.

Featuring Renju Renjimaar, an acclaimed transgender celebrity makeup artist, social activist and a theatre artist along with Rose Sherin Ansari, the song focalizes on an emotional depiction that exists between a transgender woman and her foster daughter. The society has been always confined to the theory that it’s a woman, who has to always get accustomed according to the patriarchal attitudes, but instead, it’s the society that has to change and get civilized, thereby making ‘Women’ breathe in a source of freedom and happiness rather than imposing mental and emotional severity on them.

Abi Reji has handled cinematography for this song with Premsai Mukundan editing it.
