August 30, 2024, marks the release of a soulful Sufi single uniting India and Pakistan through music
Bollywood’s Sharib-Toshi Join Hands with Hashim Ahmedani for First Pakistani Collaboration
Renowned Bollywood musical duo Sharib-Toshi have teamed up with Pakistani producer Hashim Ahmedani for a unique cross-country collaboration. The Sufi single, “Salle Alla,” will be released on August 30, 2024, on digital platforms under Hashim Ahmedani Production. This highly anticipated track represents the first time Sharib-Toshi have collaborated with a Pakistani artist, symbolizing a cultural bridge between the two countries.
A Melodic Exploration of Divine Union and Love
Salle Alla is a spiritual composition that captures the essence of Sufi music, offering listeners a journey of divine love and connection. The deeply emotive lyrics, written by lyricist Zaheer Zarf, reflect the soul’s longing for unity with the divine, transcending worldly distractions. This single is not just a song but a heartfelt expression of spiritual devotion, brought to life by Sharib-Toshi’s mesmerizing vocals.
A Global Team of Talented Artists
The collaboration began when ace composer and music producer Alex Shahbaz envisioned a project that would bring together musicians from around the world. Salle Alla features live-recorded instruments, with Georgian violinist Nino Chikviladze on strings, Joshua Amjad, a veteran from Coke Studio, on tabla, Simon on harmonium, and rising guitarist Musa. The unique blend of these musical talents has resulted in a track that is both globally influenced and deeply rooted in traditional Sufi music.
Sharib-Toshi on the Collaboration: ‘A Bold Step for Sufi Music’
Speaking about their foray into Sufi music, Sharib-Toshi shared their excitement: “Daring to try something different from the crowd, especially in the music industry, takes immense courage. We have always wanted to make the Sufi genre popular among the current generation, which is a huge challenge and requires faith in oneself. This collaboration with Hashim Ahmedani and Alex Shahbaz is a step toward uniting people through music.”
They emphasized that the collaboration not only aims to entertain but also to spread the profound messages of Sufi philosophy to modern audiences.
Hashim Ahmedani’s Dream Come True
Hashim Ahmedani, the producer of Salle Alla, expressed his gratitude for the collaboration, stating: “This track is a testament to the fact that music transcends all barriers. Working with the brothers Sharib-Toshi was an incredible experience, and we can’t wait for the audience to witness the magic of this single. It’s been a dream come true.”
A Unifying Musical Experience
The song aims to resonate with music lovers across borders, bridging cultures and creating a connection that goes beyond geographical and political divides. Salle Alla is not only a celebration of Sufi music but also a testament to the power of collaboration in uniting different artistic traditions.
