Panther’s new EP Dhoom V is a five-track journey through hustle, heat, and honest hip-hop. Featuring Spectra, Fotty Seven, Bella, and J Trix, it’s a well-rounded, no-nonsense project making its mark in 2025’s Desi Hip-Hop lineup.

Indian rapper Panther, known off-stage as Anubhav Shukla, is back with a new release that doesn’t just add to his catalog, it sharpens it. Titled Dhoom V, this five-track EP is a focused, gritty, and musically tight offering that blends lyrical honesty with well-calibrated production. The project dropped on May 7, 2025, and it already feels like a solid entry in the Desi Hip-Hop archives, not overhyped, just real and ready.

And if you’re ready to dive into the sound, Dhoom V is now streaming on all major platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube. Whether you’re bumping it on headphones or blasting it in the car, this one’s meant to ride loud.

Every Track Tells a Story – And None of Them Miss

Panther kicks off the EP with “Vyapari,” a track that leans into his business mindset, spitting truth with minimal flash. Next comes “Dharna” featuring Spectra, a socially conscious joint with urgency in its tone but clarity in its message. 

Then “Milkha Singh” revs up the pace, where Panther and Fotty Seven channel the legendary athlete’s speed and spirit into a rapid-fire tribute that balances pride with performance.

“Fikar” brings the lyrical weight, teaming up with Bella and J Trix to explore emotional and mental tension with vulnerability and craft. 

Rounding off the EP is “Pahiye,” a motivational closer that hits like a deep breath before the next hustle, the kind of track that reminds you to keep moving, no matter the road.

Sound Design, Vision & Real Talk

Speaking on Dhoom V, Panther describes it as “a bold, high-octane EP meant to shake up the Desi Hip-Hop scene with explosive tracks full of raw emotion and unforgettable hooks.” 

That ambition is backed up by a production squad featuring Retro Blxxd, Nikhil-Swapnil, Akshay The One, Vision, and Panther himself. 

The engineering, handled by Basspeak, gives the EP a crisp, unfiltered sound that doesn’t polish away the grit, it highlights it.

The visual identity of Dhoom V is just as intentional, thanks to Tuhin Chandra and Tushar Chandra’s album artwork. It feels like a clear extension of the project’s attitude: bold, direct, and designed to leave a mark.

Final Thoughts

Dhoom V isn’t trying to be the flashiest release of the year, and that’s its strength. It’s confident without being cocky, intense without being overwhelming. Panther stays in his lane, perfects his craft, and invites some sharp collaborators along the ride.

For fans of lyrical authenticity and cohesive storytelling, this EP delivers. It’s short, sharp, and speaks clearly to what Desi Hip-Hop stands for in 2025: hustle, heart, and something to say.
