Maha Ali Kazmi set to release her second single ‘Jana Nahi’ on Eid-ul-Fitr!

[Pakistan, 25 July 2014]: Popular musician Maha Ali Kazmi, who first made her debut with ‘Nazar’ in 2013, introduces her latest single ‘Jana Nahi’, releasing nationwide on audio and video on Eid-ul-Fitr 2014.

Jana Nahi’ portrays love and parting; a bitter end to what could have been beautiful and a harmonious union of hearts; a song in the remembrance of love found, love lost; something that turns the fate around, that leaves a trail of memories, some bitter, some sweet, along the path of dreams of yesterday and yonder, where its video represents a girl in pursuit of love. The concept behind the video is derived from the feeling one gets while awakening from a very pleasant dream. For a few seconds, you are disconnected from the harsh realities of life; and then it dawns upon you that it was just a dream.

Even though I started writing songs as young as 16 years old, this was my first Urdu song which I composed and wrote myself. I never thought I’d ever pull it off however with support from family and friends this was possible. Jana Nahi is about love and parting; a bitter end to what could have been beautiful and a harmonious union of hearts; a song in the remembrance of love found, love lost; something that turns the fate around, that leaves a trail of memories, some bitter, some sweet, along the path of dreams of yesterday and yonder.”
