Hi ali.... I'm from india and I love your voice...My friend manoj from us was told me about you...And after that....I fell in love with your voice....❤️❤️❤️
It's 6am. Me and my 6 month old baby quietly patiently listening to "nakhule aankh agar khwaab hai TOH khaab sahi" verse on repeat. ❤️❤️ Love conquers all
It's 12:40 am and my now 7 months old baby who does not want to sleep danced slow dance to this song. My eyes teared up with all the emotions in the world looking at his grin. Such a beautiful moment for me. Thanks again Alisethi. You're a magician ♥️♥️
Why isn’t this popular? Because it is too precious for everyone to realize it’s worth . This really gives you goosebumps. There are characters who represent every stage and mohr in this safar of life in this video! Truly this is a mehfil! Zindagi hi ek mehfil heh, chaar din ki.
It isn't popular because we have lost ourselves to the gyrating pulsating music that showcases our thoughtless urge for instant gratification....seems no one has time to time to dwell and reflect....yeh zindagi waqaee chundd dn ki hae... your remarks tells me you are a latent poet yourself....
Some precious things should only br preserved for the best ... not everyone understands these songs.,, inhe suna nhi jata bs mehsoos kiya jata he... bs isiliye inhe itna tawajjo nhi milta ,kyoki aaj kal bs log gaane sunte he mehsoos karna nhi sikhe he :)
After this Song ended, A silence spread in my room, And I was missing my body's presence in that room after a minute, When I came in Consciousness, I thanked my Lord for giving me and retaining my life to listen such a beautiful composition In this brutal world I found my peace in a song, Thanks Pakistan from your neighbour 🇮🇳
Bhai maal kam phoka kar, i know after a joint world seems different and beautiful, i know its easily available but phokne ke baat song nahi suneka ok hahaha
Some thoughts while watching the video: The set mimics something you'd see in an airport or a train station. We are all passengers and somehow someday we'd have to be at a stage - a station - where everything around us is broken; firaaq (separation) is inevitable. But everyone going through that, despite having different stories & backgrounds, is connected. Our longing, our pain, our search for destiny unites us. And though it may take some time, the light you're seeking will illuminate, just like in a station or airport you'd look for your departure time on the screens and will tell you that the wait is over. You'd finally reach the state of Wasl (Union) in the end.
Nice interpretation. I would like to highlight that if you notice he had used different aged people, of different religions, and sexuality probably. :) Humans become humans in distress, humanity prevails.
this comment section gives me hope.....hope that this love for each other will prevail over the hatred. amazing what a song can do. brilliant song btw.☮&♥️.
Kshitiz Vashistha 💌❤️💗💞💞💞💞 What a comment man I can imagine that what you write above. I just love the way people relate to the work or find their stories in someone else's words. Kaash har ek dil ka ye ik gumnam khazaana mehfooz rhe💓💞💞💞
i discovered him after pasoori. Love how skilled pakistani singers are, be it shafqat amanat ali or rahat fateh ali and now him. They have a very strong classical base.
I'm a fan of pakistani singers and there is no doubt that they're way ahead of us in terms of talented singers. Used to watch them on sa re ga ma pa which used to air on zee tv back then
What a beautiful concept of the world being a cold and gloomy place where we, the passengers, are stuck in its loneliness and meaninglessness. And the only way to survive is by being there for each other.
Beautifully said, there are people singing, writing speaking thanks to the people like you who understands. Because there is no purpose is saying if no one is listening.
Im teacher here in Pakistan.. I do not spread hate.. Bcz I know.. My indian neighbors they wont let the music die... Your comments are just love... ❤❤❤
Being underrated is such a bliss, cause you only gonna have mindful audiences... Who appreciate you with each cell of their body.... Thanks Lord Ali Sethi...👑
Sometimes I cannot believe the amount of talent God has gifted to Pakistan, yet somehow we were never able to look at it, we had it only for people who could see it from the outside. Imagine if we could see it "right". Ali sethi, you are a generational talent. One who will be remembered and missed from a multitude of future generations. lucky to have you with us, right now!
Don't be. People who are meant to appreciate it will be guided to it. Knowing things like these is special, we can keep these treasures for people who know how to love beautiful things
The serene look of peace on his face throughout the song and especially when it ends, makes me want to break into the screen of my laptop and give him a tight hug. Love from an Indian, Pandit Ali Sethi.
If you are here, believe me you have an awesome taste in music and you have realized that every time Hindustanis like me find solace and love from art like these, your heart fills with joy. After all, our forefathers gave up their comforts and sacrificed their lives so that we two can live happily ever after. Do not let anybody from either side lessen the love you have for the other side. It is times like these that test how humane we truly are. Always remember, our forefathers fought together against the colonial rule. It reminds me of the scene from LOTR when Frodo asks Sam,"What are we holding on to, Sam? " and Sam replies ,"That there's some good in this world, Mr. Frodo...and it's worth fighting for.” Lots of love from India.
You are absolutely right sir. And it's amazing to find people who shares the same kind of thought. This piece is truly a bliss and so it's message. When everything around us is conspiring to separate us hope we still stay united.. love from India ❤
What a comment. It feels great to know that we still have people on either side of the boarder who think like this. Many thanks. May the Love prevail! May the hatred end! May the music heal! Everafter.

This song is in repeated mode on my Playlist, and the first I heard it, my tears started rolling down my cheeks. I thought it's because of the voice, it would go away as I become used to of the song and voice. But it's been 1 night 1 whole day, I am still feeling the same. Surreal, exceptional, loving, soulful, totally in awe of this art.

Chandni Raat - A Bliss of Subtlety! Co-Incidentally, I am writing this note exactly one year since the release of this single by Ali Sethi! Not that I discovered this song only now. But I must admit that I took some time to digest it, appreciate the depth of a seemingly simple song in the first listening. This song has multi-dimensional layers of music, lyrics, visualisation and meaning which makes the process of interpreting it so beautiful. Overall the composition guides the viewer through emotions of separation and distance at first to the event of union towards the end with subtle, metaphorical representations of love. Love of all kinds for all kinds of people - as is apparent from the video. Be it gratitude, warmth, concern, affection, compassion and a multitude of such emotions. While there is a human to human element apparent during the whole video, towards the end there’s also an over-arching union happening of everyone in the room taking our interpretations to a different layer of abstraction! Musically, the song has a simple arrangement - primarily anchored on piano based chords and arpeggios and occasional riffs at places to fill up the musical space beautifully. So it’s mainly the Piano and Ali’s vocals which is quite dominant in the whole arrangement. The song is on D-major scale and the chord progressions are the quintessential 4-chord combination at most places which is nicely enriched by piano riffs to add a tinge of variety to the background music. Few lines into the song, there’s a subtle layering of strings and brass sections (like one at 02:00) which grows to prominence towards the end. This subtle musical build up also correlates with the larger narrative of separation to union as it leads to a positive crescendo. French Horns makes a pronounced appearance in the last interlude (at 03:44) and then eventually the whole verse that follows bringing a sense of warmth in the emotion. I also particularly liked the rhythmic notes of the brass section towards the end (at 04:25) bringing a sense of tempo into the song in an otherwise percussion-free arrangement. The essence of the song remains Ali’s vocals which binds the music, visuals and lyrics into a beautiful imaginative story. Ali sings on a relative low scale to perhaps convey the depth of the composition effectively. It also helps in clarity of the notes as well as emoting through it effectively which sometimes get lost in high scales. Ali is masterful with his vocals throughout the compassion. There are places where you see a fluidic transition of melody where you can hardly discern the underlying notes. Then there are also places where you experience the trademark Ali Sethi alaaps - crisp, clear and immaculate. Ali uses amplitude variations effectively to emote throughout the song. As much as the music builds on you on frequent listening, the video keeps adding various dimensions to your interpretations over a period of time as well. All the actors, while silent, yet convey a lot through their subtle actions, emotions and body language and keep the viewers guessing. Overall the composition is what I call a ‘Bliss of Subtlety’ - a collection of subtle influences that is driving a larger, stronger point. Enjoy discovering and unraveling this! Musically Yours, Prabhu

That guy with the headphones turning to look at the girl in the burqa with a Rolling Stones printed bag.. and every single person who has a story to tell in this video.. can't describe how beautifully made this video is. And Ali Sethi, what can I say about your divine voice !

Cried listening to it. The focus was brilliant. Society is so self centered within that in a gathering "mehfil" (Eg: train/bus station). It could be a chance to socialize and share ones sorrow (eg: "Mehfil" gathering of people) which majority now ignores. Great voice sir, Great Message!!!!!
I came across this song and "chan kitthan" just 2 days back. But I have listened these two masterpieces may be more than 50 times in just 2 days. Take a bow. Love from India❤
URDU LYRICS: چاندنی رات بڑی دیر کے بعد آئی ہے چاندنی رات بڑی دیر کے بعد آئی ہے لب پہ اک بات بڑی دیر کے بعد آئی ہے چاندنی رات بڑی دیر کے بعد آئی ہے لب پہ اک بات بڑی دیر کے بعد آئی ہے چاندنی رات نا کھلے آنکھ اگر خواب ہے تو خواب سہی نا کھلے آنکھ اگر خواب ہے تو خواب سہی یہ ملاقات بڑی دیر کے بعد آئی ہے یہ ملاقات بڑی دیر کے بعد آئی ہے لب پہ اک بات بڑی دیر کے بعد آئی ہے چاندنی رات مانگ رکھی تھی بڑی دیر سے جو وصل کی شام مانگ رکھی تھی بڑی دیر سے جو وصل کی شام وہ میرے ہاتھ بڑی دیر کے بعد آئی ہے وہ میرے ہاتھ بڑی دیر کے بعد آئی ہے لب پہ اک بات بڑی دیر کے بعد آئی ہے چاندنی رات
Wow lovely song...I liked your theme, how you put folks from different cultures, it was truely amazing to see the diversity, from an infant to aged and from a funky guy wearing headphones to a ethnic guy wearing his shall.
Ali Sethi, the way u sing (gayaki) reminds of Mohammed Rafi's soulful style..was transported to an old world..ur voice and d way u sing/modulate ur voice/nuance ur notes (harkat) hs that magical old world charm and purity!
It’s heavenly beautiful. Loads and loads of love from India. I wish we could have these songs played on indo-pak borders. All the differences would melt with such beauty.
What a creation !! The words , the music , the rendition , the visuals .. so intense and evokes the deepest feelings. For a moment after listening to the song for the first time, I was scared to think what if I had never chanced upon this ever ( came here after Modern Love Mumbai ) and would've missed witnessing this absolute piece of magic. Keep being yourself Ali Sethi !
I heard this song in Ayushman khurana's insta story then I listened in on RUclips and I fell in love with this song and Ali Seth's voice Love from Rajasthan, India ❤
SUCH A BEAUTIFUL SOOTHING SONG AND AMAZING STORY TELLING ... love, emotion, music have no border 💗 ... I would have never discover Ali Sethi, if Pasoori wouldn't happen
such a beautiful song, and Ali bhai's voice always touchs heart ❤️ and the best part is the video such a beautiful message I wish all this tension and hate between the two countries comes to an end soon.
@@GoodSoul-nh4xc i am sure bhai and after that day no other country can match with Hindustan in any area be it science, be it industries or culture or sports
@@AnutoshPandey I agree. We (Pakistanis and Indians) here in America are like brothers. I and my Indian friend was joking and laughing even today. It's all politics of hatred dividing both countries. Together we can be a strong force 👊

This is one of the most beautiful thing I've seen in such a long time. Thank you so much for this. And whoever thought of the cinematography for this song, you have done a brilliant job. So subtle yet so noticeable. Lots and lots of love from India. 🇮🇳❤️🇵🇰
Beautiful, the video has such a deep meaning, it's not just the lovers separation, it's the ego, gender, class, nations and we're all one heart, blood and soul, love Urdu and Pakistan, peace.
Ali bhai, rulane ke liye shukriya. Duya karti hoon ki aap ko har khushi mile. Love from India. We love you. There are many people like me. WC Abhinandan ji ka mehamannawazi ke liye shukriya. ❤️❤️
Ali Sethi you remind me of “Rafi Sahab” ... What a voice texture you have ... Line” Na khule khwaab aankh line” you won’t believe how beautifully you have sung ...
Ali Sethi seems to be a big advocate of composite culture of undivided India. Really brilliant how he portrays the message of song in this video... people from different culture sharing same roof and making connections.
What the hell is undivided India? There was no India before 1947, there were a bunch of princely states and provinces each with their own cultures. Please stop Indian washing Ali. He's not one of you, no matter how much you make him out to be.
I am Pakistani (abroad)... First I was introduced to Pasoori a few weeks back.. then my curiosity further exposed me to the Genre that is Ali Sethi... I am sitting here sad, that I missed so much... but then I hear a whisper... "Let me take you to the realm where time has no meaning " come... you have an eternity to be in my trance, come... celebrate life with me..
when i heard it first time, my dad was too sick and i thought he will get better and i'll make him hear this first up........ He never recovered.... i lost him.... maybe in another world...we'll share this masterpiece together Abu :(
Saxophone in the background took it to another level. What a beautiful experiment. I can't express how I feel but it's on repeat playback. Thank you for creating such a gem.
I think Pakistan is going through a revolution in Music and Video Making, thanks to so many people in our media industry. But with some people you always expect something special.

The song is on D-major scale and the chord progressions are the quintessential 4-chord combination at most places which is nicely enriched by piano riffs to add a tinge of variety to the background music. Few lines into the song, there’s a subtle layering of strings and brass sections (like one at 02:00) which grows to prominence towards the end. This subtle musical build up also correlates with the larger narrative of separation to union as it leads to a positive crescendo. French Horns makes a pronounced appearance in the last interlude (at 03:44) and then eventually the whole verse that follows bringing a sense of warmth in the emotion. I also particularly liked the rhythmic notes of the brass section towards the end (at 04:25) bringing a sense of tempo into the song in an otherwise percussion-free arrangement.
The essence of the song remains Ali’s vocals which binds the music, visuals and lyrics into a beautiful imaginative story. Ali sings on a relative low scale to perhaps convey the depth of the composition effectively. It also helps in clarity of the notes as well as emoting through it effectively which sometimes get lost in high scales. Ali is masterful with his vocals throughout the compassion. There are places where you see a fluidic transition of melody where you can hardly discern the underlying notes. Then there are also places where you experience the trademark Ali Sethi alaaps - crisp, clear and immaculate. Ali uses amplitude variations effectively to emote throughout the song.
As much as the music builds on you on frequent listening, the video keeps adding various dimensions to your interpretations over a period of time as well. All the actors, while silent, yet convey a lot through their subtle actions, emotions and body language and keep the viewers guessing. Overall the composition is what I call a ‘Bliss of Subtlety’ - a collection of subtle influences that is driving a larger, stronger point. Enjoy discovering and unraveling this!
Musically Yours,
Prabhu
No one could describe this as beautifully as you have brother.

@Dead Soul thanks 😊
I wish love can been seen as often in real world as in such pieces of music....
I just closed my eyes and let my inner self loose... I experienced love.. I experienced peace and I experienced pain... Ali sethi this song is a big wide win.. Love love and love 😍 from India 🇮🇳 🇮🇳
heavenly ... why people fight, why there is a need of boundaries, why can't everything be so serene like music like this...
Mere pas kehne ko sabh nahi hai. Bas itna bolungi k ye sangit hi hai jo hume jod k rakhta hai. Khuda ki barqat hai jo apki aawaz sunne ko mili, gaate rahiyega. Salaam border k us paar se.
slam border k is paar sy
Hum sab ka pyar Dil se jiska border nahi hota .
So nice
Humbleness and gratitude from pakistan
salute :)
Never waited so desperately for a song! Or shall I put it like "Ali Bhai ka gaana badi der baad aaya hai". Loads of love! ♥️
♥️
What a song...beyond LOC and all differences..Love from India..Ali Sethi.
It's nice to feel so much love crossing boundaries in the comments. Well done to all of those who want to spread kindness to each other.

That guy with the headphones turning to look at the girl in the burqa with a Rolling Stones printed bag.. and every single person who has a story to tell in this video.. can't describe how beautifully made this video is. And Ali Sethi, what can I say about your divine voice !
Yes it looks like every person has a story
Yes the concept was awesome because I am the part of this song

Background Trumpet ,French Horn and Flugelhorn with mellow tinge of piano. Its difficult to even imagine a ghazal on these instruments. Beautiful 💙💙💙
Bhai saab , bhai saab bhai saab 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 wonderful , touched the heart, ur voice simply reaches the soul, it brings a tehrav in me ( a stillness ) , purely meditative. may existence shower a lot of love nd happiness in ur life
Pakistan you have really talented singers which amazes me each time. Namaste beautiful hearted people of Pakistan from Kathmandu, Nepal.
Nobody would stop us for loving the art,culture,music and people of Pakistan.Chandni raat zaroor aayegi.love from India.♥
Neharika Singh We too love you guys honestly.....bht sakht ghussa aaata ha roz roz ki bakwaas sun k social media per. I mean com'n guyz spread love 💕. We Pakistani's have been through soo much, we got peace in Pakistan after a deacade of sacrifices during war on terror and now again this war mongering is unbelievable.
@@basitali9583 I am from such state where everyday cross border firing, bombardment on regular basis is a normal routine.We both are the sufferers. Yes,you are right.This hatred is spread by media.Hopefully war jaisa na ho kabi bi.
InshaAllah zaroor aaye ghi
Love to Indians too. 🇵🇰❤🇮🇳
India pakistan bichare hue bhai hain jin k darmiyan logon ny nafrat daal de hai lekin ek din yh nafrat har jae ge aur mohabat phr sy jeet jae ge ❤
This has such a beautiful message. May sense prevail. Humanity prevail ♥️
If you know Ali for these, and not just Pasoori, I love you. ❤️
Love you too
Know him for chan kithan, dil lagayen and this song.❤
This guy Never disappoints.....love u sir ...love from Neighbors❤️❤️🇮🇳🇵🇰
In such a hatred spreading moment. Kind words from your side are really good ❤️ good people do exist

Hope peace prevails between both countries. Yar gali mn kahin 2 log hatha pai ker rahay hon tu hum kahtay hain k kya jahil log hain. Sochain yeh dunya bhi ik gali hai jis mn har mulk k gher ki tarhan hai. Or agr is gali mn hum do parosi hatha pai karain tu dunya hum ko kya kahay gi. Bolay gi yeh dono Jahil hain ju gali mn larh rahay hain. Kash jumhuriyat mn khareeday hoye voton walay nai aqal walay log uper atay.
I am also an Indian, I too love Ali Sethi, but this song has proved to be just something else.. 💜💜💜
Cried listening to it. The focus was brilliant. Society is so self centered within that in a gathering "mehfil" (Eg: train/bus station). It could be a chance to socialize and share ones sorrow (eg: "Mehfil" gathering of people) which majority now ignores. Great voice sir, Great Message!!!!!
Completely agree 😭🙏
Amid Indo-Pak tensions, this song is giving us ‘sukoon’, even across the border.
Dear Gautam. In a little while later, things will be fine again. Current situation is swing of the pendulum.
Hello from future
Things are asusual as they were back then @@dawar14
Listen to the song "Pyar Mujhse Jo Kiya Tumne" by Chitra and Jagjit Singh from the 1982 film. India has previously experienced that era.
I came across this song and "chan kitthan" just 2 days back. But I have listened these two masterpieces may be more than 50 times in just 2 days. Take a bow. Love from India❤
URDU LYRICS:
چاندنی رات بڑی دیر کے بعد آئی ہے
چاندنی رات بڑی دیر کے بعد آئی ہے
لب پہ اک بات بڑی دیر کے بعد آئی ہے
چاندنی رات بڑی دیر کے بعد آئی ہے
لب پہ اک بات بڑی دیر کے بعد آئی ہے
چاندنی رات
نا کھلے آنکھ اگر خواب ہے تو خواب سہی
نا کھلے آنکھ اگر خواب ہے تو خواب سہی
یہ ملاقات بڑی دیر کے بعد آئی ہے
یہ ملاقات بڑی دیر کے بعد آئی ہے
لب پہ اک بات بڑی دیر کے بعد آئی ہے
چاندنی رات
مانگ رکھی تھی بڑی دیر سے جو وصل کی شام
مانگ رکھی تھی بڑی دیر سے جو وصل کی شام
وہ میرے ہاتھ بڑی دیر کے بعد آئی ہے
وہ میرے ہاتھ بڑی دیر کے بعد آئی ہے
لب پہ اک بات بڑی دیر کے بعد آئی ہے
چاندنی رات
Wow lovely song...I liked your theme, how you put folks from different cultures, it was truely amazing to see the diversity, from an infant to aged and from a funky guy wearing headphones to a ethnic guy wearing his shall.
Ali Sethi, the way u sing (gayaki) reminds of Mohammed Rafi's soulful style..was transported to an old world..ur voice and d way u sing/modulate ur voice/nuance ur notes (harkat) hs that magical old world charm and purity!
Areee ki sundor love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩
Love from india...❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I jst love pakistani songs...big-big fan of pakistani singers...
It’s heavenly beautiful. Loads and loads of love from India. I wish we could have these songs played on indo-pak borders. All the differences would melt with such beauty.
Beautiful composition... Your voice is tantalizing
What a creation !! The words , the music , the rendition , the visuals .. so intense and evokes the deepest feelings. For a moment after listening to the song for the first time, I was scared to think what if I had never chanced upon this ever ( came here after Modern Love Mumbai ) and would've missed witnessing this absolute piece of magic. Keep being yourself Ali Sethi !
Omg ! Pure love ❤❤❤❤❤ biggest fan from amritsar
I heard this song in Ayushman khurana's insta story then I listened in on RUclips and I fell in love with this song and Ali Seth's voice
Love from Rajasthan, India ❤
Same here
Me too
I think ayushman is fan of ali sethi.. He already remake a song of ali sethi..
Ayushman has great taste in music! He always posts beautiful songs in his stories
Very deep video . Amazing work Ali sethi
SUCH A BEAUTIFUL SOOTHING SONG AND AMAZING STORY TELLING ... love, emotion, music have no border 💗 ... I would have never discover Ali Sethi, if Pasoori wouldn't happen
There is pain but there is also peace
Apny wali bat
isn't it the most beautiful combo?
Politics and geopolitics has made us enemies but till this music is there some hope is left 🙏. Love from India
Peace and love from pakistan as well❤
I couldn't understand,, beautiful n hide message like there are like in their last Journey !!!
Its the greatness of song or something which strikes the cord that makes a tear rollout of my eye everytime I listen to this song.
such a beautiful song, and Ali bhai's voice always touchs heart ❤️
and the best part is the video
such a beautiful message
I wish all this tension and hate between the two countries comes to an end soon.
insha'Allah , brother....
Inshallah one day Pakistan and India will be again together like 2 brothers 🇵🇰❤🇮🇳
@@GoodSoul-nh4xc i am sure bhai and after that day no other country can match with Hindustan in any area be it science, be it industries or culture or sports
@@AnutoshPandey I agree. We (Pakistanis and Indians) here in America are like brothers. I and my Indian friend was joking and laughing even today. It's all politics of hatred dividing both countries. Together we can be a strong force 👊

What a voice texture you have ...
Line” Na khule khwaab aankh line” you won’t believe how beautifully you have sung ...
Music and art has no boundaries 🖤
Love from India 🇮🇳🇮🇳
#🎗️
You can't sing this song along with him without having tears in your eyes(if you understand the lyrics completely)❤
Thanx man for this feeling......
Ali Sethi seems to be a big advocate of composite culture of undivided India. Really brilliant how he portrays the message of song in this video... people from different culture sharing same roof and making connections.
If you ever watch any of his insta live sessions, he always talks about the culture as a whole. How it was “purane waqton mein”
Mostly all artists are great ambassador of love and peace.
What the hell is undivided India? There was no India before 1947, there were a bunch of princely states and provinces each with their own cultures. Please stop Indian washing Ali. He's not one of you, no matter how much you make him out to be.
@@sashimi7246 u r indian. This is our culture u r borrowing from us. #facts convert back
I want to listen this again and again and cry with deepest emotions. Aman ki Aasa 🇮🇳❤️🇵🇰🙏
❤
💕💕
The song and the comments are so soothing ❤️
I am Pakistani (abroad)... First I was introduced to Pasoori a few weeks back.. then my curiosity further exposed me to the Genre that is Ali Sethi... I am sitting here sad, that I missed so much... but then I hear a whisper... "Let me take you to the realm where time has no meaning " come... you have an eternity to be in my trance, come... celebrate life with me..
Pakistan produces best music in Asia even today but obviously dnt have vry big labels to market it. Trust me u hav just scratched the surface.
What I wouldn't give to hear this man live...
A Harvard graduate that decided to learn music and give us gems. Sethi sahb ka koi jawab nh.
I did last month.......I hope you do.
I've heard him live. He sounds even better live.
He does Instagram Live sessions. You can check that out
Kashmir 😛😛😛
right now i am like ' bas ek baar aur sununga phir so jaunga ' .
❤ on loop
Same here bro!!!
Wow, reminds me of Khayyam saab 's' Zindagi jab bhi Teri bazm ' and Roshan's ' Jurm e ulfat' .. superb ghazal Ali. Loads of Love
when i heard it first time, my dad was too sick and i thought he will get better and i'll make him hear this first up........ He never recovered.... i lost him.... maybe in another world...we'll share this masterpiece together Abu :(
ruclips.net/video/sUbpaO6UdNo/видео.html new soft song
I'm sorry for your loss!
😢
different song..awesome ali sethi..love from india🇮🇳
I have a feeling that I'd be listening to this on loop for days!!💝💝
Saxophone in the background took it to another level. What a beautiful experiment. I can't express how I feel but it's on repeat playback. Thank you for creating such a gem.
was thinking about the same while i read your comment too... its beautiful... its actually a Trumpet and Flugelhorn played by Jordan Katz.
What kind of a musician is this guy Ali Sethi? I think he is moreover like a god sent angel of music 😍😇❤️
LOVE from Sri Lanka 🇱🇰
There is LITERALLY EVERYTHING about this - song, video, concept, Photography, people etc.- that is beautiful. God Bless you paaji!
I think Pakistan is going through a revolution in Music and Video Making, thanks to so many people in our media industry. But with some people you always expect something special.
Damn true ,, first this man than bayaan , moroo at some places and many other un popular artists
Was waiting for this eagerly...so beautiful
