Ali Zafar and Urooj Fatima gave a gift to their fans by performing the popular folk Balochi song of the past ‘Laila O Laila’ in a modern style.
The song was viewed 10 million times on YouTube in January this year and Ali Zafar was still happy about it.
It may be recalled that ‘Laila O Laila’ was first sung by Baloch folk singer Ustad Faiz Mohammad Baloch, while it was also sung by Iranian-born Swedish Swedish, Persian and Pashto singer Rustam Mir Lashari for Cook Studios.
However, compared to the old songs, the songs of Ali Zafar and Urooj Fatima were presented in a unique way by incorporating the beautiful scenery of Balochistan including Quetta.
