“Everywhere we went, we met with a great response from the audience comprising largely desis but also goras ,” he reveals.
I performed covers of Sufi songs like Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan’s Allah Hu, and my own Sufi songs like Weray Aa, which we had done with Sanam Marvi, and Khari Neem Ke Neechay, which we recorded for Coke Studio earlier. I’ve just returned from a very successful concert tour across 25 cities of the US, with a Rajasthani group. On a possibility of Siege band coming back together, Younus says, “Right now, it’s seems rather difficult, also because I’ve moved to the US where I recently got married.”īut he promises to continue to make music. I just wanted to do something fun this time around. But I didn’t want to get into storytelling I’ve had my share of such videos, and I am bored with them. It could’ve been shot in many other ways for instance, we could’ve shown the two characters, engaged in a brawl maybe, etc. However, he insists that “no one should try to make sense of the video. This time, I thought why we don’t shoot there it’s a lovely place,” he said. “The Pakistani community invites me for shows every year on August 14. When asked why he chose to shoot in Norway, the pop artist who is now based in Seattle, reveals that he’s been visiting the country regularly for the past few years. The video has been shot in Oslo, Norway, by a Norwegian-born Pakistani director Aman Shaikh, and features Sonya Singh, a former Miss Norway. But it’s only now that I made the video and released it,” he said. “We did it a couple of years back, and also performed it at the Pepsi Smash and Battle of the Bands. Younus reveals that it’s an old Siege song. The tagline - ‘ Maula Jatt Teh Noori Nat, huqqa pee teh muchhaan watt’ (Maula Jatt and Noori Nat, puff on the huqqa and twirl your moustache) - flashed in my mind, and then I wrote the entire song around it.”

Younus tells Gulf News Tabloid! that he was “always fascinated by these, which became a part of our rural culture ever since the movie came out in 1979. Of course, the lyrics are fun too, based around iconic Lollywood characters - the loud, gandasa (a long stick that symbolises power) toting Maula Jatt and his counterfoil Noori Natt. The track is high on energy, and moves you to hit the dance floor. Titled Maula Jatt, the song is Punjabi folk-meets-club-music, as Younus would like us to define it. At the close of 2017, former vocalist of the band Siege Junaid Younus released a new video that has the potential to become quite the rage, especially at parties.
