The lyricist behind Double Engine, Keedaa Cola, Pressure Cooker and more — Niklesh Sunkoji writes words that belong to the music.
Niklesh Sunkoji is a Telugu lyricist who has built a quiet but consistent body of work across independent and mainstream Telugu cinema. His songwriting sits comfortably in the space between the literary and the colloquial — lyrics that feel rooted in everyday Telangana life while carrying enough weight to stick after the song ends.
His credits include Double Engine (2024, dir. Rohit Penumatsa, music Vivek Sagar) — an Avanti Cinema production and part of MC Joint's extended creative family — as well as Keedaa Cola (2023), Pressure Cooker (2020), Pitta Kathalu (Netflix, 2021), and Matti Katha (2023). His range across these projects demonstrates an adaptability that makes him a reliable collaborator across different tonal registers.
MC Joint represents Niklesh for lyric commissions, music project collaborations, and artist development within the Telugu independent music and cinema ecosystem.
