LAHORE (The Thursday Times) — “Faded” ke khaliq Norway nazhad Bartanvi DJ Alan Walker Lahore mein viral Pakistani gane “Alfaaz” ke gulukaron Hamza Malik aur Zain Zohaib ke saath mauseeqi par kaam kar rahe hain, aur mudahon ko yaqeen hai ke aik mushtarka gana aane wala hai.
Is ka aaghaz aik tabsire se hua. “Alfaaz” ki video dekhte hue Walker ne gulukaron ke peechhe chalte aik naqab posh shakhs ko dekha jis ka huliya un ke makhsoos naqab aur hood se bohat milta julta tha. Unhon ne likha: “Video mein Walker kyun hai? Waise video bohat khoobsurat hai.” Hamza Malik ne YouTube par jawab diya: “Hahaha, bohat shukriya dost! Walker filhal aik muamma hai… lekin shayad hum mil kar ise hal kar sakein.”
Is ke baad Walker ne aik airport se video post ki: “Hamza ne mujhe jawab de diya hai. Yeh gana har jagah hai. Chalo Lahore chal kar ise mukammal karte hain.” Lahore pahunchne ke baad Giraffe Studios ki share karda aik video mein unhon ne kaha: “Main abhi Lahore pahuncha hoon aur yahan bohat khoobsurat hai, aur ab kuch mauseeqi par kaam karne studio ja raha hoon.”
Unhon ne kya post kiya: 4 November ko Walker ne Lahore Qile ke Alamgiri Darwaze ke bahar filmaya gaya aik teaser share kiya jis mein woh apne logo wala lakri ka aik dabba thame khare thay aur pas-e-manzar mein “Alfaaz” chal raha tha, saath likha tha: “Jald mazeed aa raha hai.” Unhon ne gulukaron ke saath studio se bhi post kiya (“Waise aaj ka din bohat nateeja khez raha”), aur Hamza Malik ne Walker ki aik tasveer share ki jis mein unhon ne aisi shawl odh rakhi thi jis par Urdu mein lafz “Alfaaz” likha tha, aur saath likha: “Aik aur surprise bhi hai.” Walker ne halwa puri ka nashta bhi kiya.
Donon jaanib se ab tak kisi gane, naam ya release ki tareekh ka elan nahin kiya gaya.
Hamza Malik aur bhaiyon Zain Ali aur Zohaib Ali ka gana “Alfaaz” 25 July ko release hua tha aur Spotify ke Top 50 Global chart mein jagah bana chuka hai.
