Indian actress Ananya Panday has praised Pakistani singers Hamza Malik and Zain Zohaib for their smash hit song Alfaaz.
The Bollywood star shared an Instagram story with the track playing in the background. She wore a traditional red outfit in the picture and added a heart emoji. “Favorite song in the world,” she wrote in the caption.
The song has also drawn attention from British-Norwegian singer and producer Alan Walker.
He made a surprise visit to Lahore, reacted to the Alfaaz music video on social media and hinted at working with its performers, Hamza Malik, Zain and Zohaib.
Walker later posted a video on his official Instagram account. In the clip, he places a wooden box with his logo in front of Alamgiri Gate, facing Hazuri Bagh, while Alfaaz plays in the background. Fans took the music choice as a sign that an Alfaaz 2.0 may be on the way.
“Thank you for all the love and support! Your kind words and comments make me feel so welcome,” Walker wrote in the caption.
Alfaaz has crossed 50 million streams on Spotify. An Instagram story from Zohaib’s official music account reported that it reached No 1 on Spotify’s charts in both India and Pakistan, and No 39 on the global chart. The song has also made Spotify’s Global Top 50.
The song has also crossed 41 million views on YouTube.
