From producing the song to singing it and shooting the video – there was so much energy in every step. It was great to work with Ayesha and Hasan – they both brought life to the video through their performances.”
Hasan spoke about his experience as: “This is the second time I have worked with Wajahat on a song and I must say he is brilliant at his job. Working with another choreographer was an amazing experience too. I believe what made the whole process more amazing was the song itself. Qurram sang it so well! I’m playing it on repeat since I first listened to it.”
Ayesha shared her thoughts in words as: “My experience was really good. It was the first time I danced since I had the accident that injured my right shoulder bone, so I was really scared. But Wahab made sure none of my steps was stressful on my right shoulder. Both Hasan and Q made the shoot so fun; it was awesome. Also the whole team especially Wajahat deserves an applause for making sure the shoot happens smoothly and on time.”
