This Onam, music lovers have one name on their lips—Narayanan R Menon. The gifted music director has turned the festive season into a symphony of success with his latest collection of Onam songs that have struck a chord with audiences and reel creators alike.
Menon released four enchanting tracks this year—Onatharu, Onam Vanne, Onapookkal, and the peppy Onam Vibe. Each song carries his signature blend of tradition and modernity. Onatharu, brought to life by the soulful voices of Madhu Balakrishnan and Mathangi Ajithkumar, and Onam Vanne, a special collaboration between legendary singer G. Venugopal and his son Arvind Venugopal, have each crossed 50,000 organic views. Onapookkal, sung by Aaroh Alex, adds a delicate charm, while Onam Vibe has turned into a viral sensation—garnering over 450,000 views on Instagram alone.
But Narayanan R Menon’s artistry goes far beyond seasonal anthems. Hailing from Kerala, he has composed more than 55 songs across Malayalam, Tamil, Hindi, English, and Bhojpuri. His repertoire is as diverse as it is soulful, spanning romantic melodies, devotional music, and film scores. His Bhojpuri composition for Chatayi Kahan Bichayun (2018) and devotional Kaliygavarada series reflect his versatility, while Poomandharam has charmed over 1.3 million YouTube viewers.
A true patron of talent, Menon has introduced over 20 new singers to the music world, giving fresh voices a platform to shine. He also uses his music as a tool for social good—his Covid Vaccine Anthem, sung by Jassie Gift, remains a proud contribution to public awareness. His brilliance has been honored with prestigious awards, including one presented by veteran actress Meenakshi Seshadri for his works Ramodaya and Aankhom Mein Paaya Tera Pyaar.
What makes Menon’s journey even more inspiring is his ability to balance passion with profession. A mechanical engineer with a doctorate, he is also the Managing Director of the Aromen Group of Companies in India and the UAE. With consecutive “Entrepreneur of the Year” titles to his name, he proves that business acumen and artistic brilliance can harmonize beautifully.
This Onam season, Narayanan R Menon has once again shown that music, when woven with emotion and vision, can transcend boundaries. His melodies don’t just celebrate a festival—they celebrate life itself.
