The Tamil-Telugu bilingual film Pookie has just dropped its first musical bomb, and fans are already reaching for tissues. Titled “Manasu Valikithu”, the emotional break-up anthem features music composer-actor Vijay Antony himself alongside rising star Ajay Dhishan, both grooving (and hurting) through the pain of lost love.

A Song That Hits Straight in the Feels

Composed, written, and sung by Vijay Antony in collaboration with the soulful Kharesma Ravichandran, “Manasu Valikithu” is the kind of track that makes you stare at the ceiling at 2 a.m. The lyrics capture the raw ache of a relationship falling apart – the silence after fights, the unsent texts, and the unbearable weight of memories. Vijay Antony’s voice, drenched in melancholy, pairs perfectly with Kharesma’s tender yet powerful vocals, creating a duet that feels deeply personal.

Vijay Antony and Ajay Dhishan Bring the Pain on Screen

In the beautifully shot lyrical video, Vijay Antony and Ajay Dhishan deliver understated yet devastating performances. There’s no over-the-top drama here – just two people trying to move on while their hearts refuse to let go. The subtle choreography, dim lighting, and rain-soaked frames amplify the heartbreak, making every frame feel like a page torn from someone’s real-life diary.

Pookie: More Than Just Another Love Story

Directed by Ganesh Chandra, Pookie is shaping up to be an intense emotional drama wrapped in Vijay Antony’s signature melodic style. Known for blending commercial elements with strong storytelling (think Naan, Salim, and Kodiyil Oruvan), Vijay Antony seems to be in top form both as actor and music director. With “Manasu Valikithu” setting the mood, the film promises a roller-coaster of love, loss, and redemption.

Why “Manasu Valikithu” is Already Trending

Within hours of release, the song has stormed YouTube trending lists in both Tamil and Telugu regions. Fans are flooding comment sections with broken-heart emojis and personal stories, proving once again that nothing connects people faster than a good break-up song. The Telugu version, with its equally poignant lyrics, ensures the emotion translates seamlessly across languages.

Mark Your Calendars – 2026 Theatrical Release

Pookie is slated to hit cinemas in 2026, and if the first single is anything to go by, audiences are in for a cinematic experience that will leave them emotionally drained – in the best way possible. With Vijay Antony wearing multiple hats and a fresh face like Ajay Dhishan adding new energy, the film is already one of the most anticipated bilingual projects of the year.

In a world full of party anthems and mass beats, “Manasu Valikithu” reminds us why we fell in love with melody in the first place. Go stream it, cry a little, and thank Vijay Antony for giving voice to every heartbreak we never knew how to explain.
