Pakistanis and music go hand in hand. Ever since the times of Ahmed Rushdie and Noor Jehan, the music industry of Pakistan has never seen a complete downfall. From decade to decade, the country’s musicians produce different genres, creating different legends.
These days the Pakistan music industry is seeing a revival of the band culture along with new starlets coming to the big stages, delivering nothing but absolute perfection with their vocal abilities.
A live video recorded inside a Cafe in Karachi has recently gone viral on social media, being shared thousands of times by people from all over the world. In the video, a young man sits and sings a medley of two Indian songs along with his friends at a roof-top cafe.
The singer, Vahaj Hanif, has gone viral after his ballistic performance of ‘Jab Bana Uska hi Bana’ and ‘Ae Khuda’. The musicians who accompanied him the live performance set the mood along with Vahaj’s soothing vocals. With a fusion of guitars and a tabla, people of the sub-continent have gone crazy after the performance and Vahaj’s singing ability.
