“Tappe,” “Guddi Da Parahuna” and “Zindgi Yaaran Di” make a compact Narinder Batth birthday playlist, but they also reveal something more interesting than a routine October 29 greeting. The three songs place his writing inside two Punjabi films with different casts, performers and musical collaborators: the family drama Rabb Da Radio 2 and the Sippy Gill-led Marjaney soundtrack.
This is not an attempt to squeeze Batth’s wider work into a three-song list. It is a film-focused route through documented soundtrack credits—one that lets Punjabi-cinema listeners follow the lyricist’s name as it moves between separate screen worlds and creative teams.
Two stops inside the Rabb Da Radio family
Released in 2019, Rabb Da Radio 2 continued the story of Manjinder and Guddi, played by Tarsem Jassar and Simi Chahal. The newly married couple return to Manjinder’s maternal home, where the close-knit extended family he remembers has been divided by old fractures. That family setting supplies the larger dramatic world surrounding the album.
Batth is credited as lyricist on two songs from that soundtrack. Ranjit Bawa performs “Tappe” with Gurlez Akhtar, while Kulbir Jhinjer performs “Guddi Da Parahuna.” The pair offers a neat way to notice how one writer’s work can pass through distinct voices while remaining part of the same film campaign.
The performers are important to this birthday selection because film music is built through collaboration. Batth’s name connects the writing, but each recording also belongs to the singers and the wider soundtrack team. Listening through the credits keeps those contributions visible instead of treating a movie album as the work of a single person.
From that ensemble to Marjaney
“Zindgi Yaaran Di” takes the playlist into a different project. The song was created for the Marjaney soundtrack, with Sippy Gill as singer, Deep Jandu as composer and Batth as lyricist. Its documented release belongs to 2021, giving this selection a second film, another leading voice and a new composer.
Placed beside the two Rabb Da Radio 2 tracks, the Marjaney song shows the practical range of a film lyricist’s collaborations without requiring an inflated claim about an entire career. The common thread is Batth’s writing; the surrounding voices, music and cinematic identities change from project to project.
That distinction also keeps soundtrack work separate from standalone Punjabi singles. A lyricist may write far beyond cinema, but these three credits have a specific destination: they were attached to films and released within their respective soundtrack worlds. For readers exploring Punjabi music through movies, that makes them a focused starting point rather than a supposed complete catalogue.
Begin the October 29 listen with “Tappe” and “Guddi Da Parahuna,” then move to “Zindgi Yaaran Di.” The sequence travels from the ensemble world of Rabb Da Radio 2 to a Sippy Gill and Deep Jandu collaboration—and lets Narinder Batth’s name provide the connecting line.
