Aik jhalla name ka Malaah(The one who rows a boat) tha uska beta tha jiska naam tha Challa tha aur wo apny bety se bht pyar krta tha aik din jhalla bemar tha to usna apna bety challa ko bhj deya kashti py kisi ko darya kay paar chorna pay magar uska beta wps na aya aur jhalla uski yaad ma pagal hgya. Many kafi koshish ki but koi authentic story nhi mili k uska beta kdr gya. Some say ka ghr se bhag gya some say darya ma doob gya toofan anay se and so on. Still it's a sad story...
Ustad SHAUKAT ALI sang this song many many years before Gurdaas Maan Sung this song and actually Maan sab is really inspired of SHAUKAT ALI sab and he mentioned in many interviews he is inspired of SHAUKAT ALI sab. No match of SHAUKAT ALI sab singing simply Outclass and So pure...

Bahut dukh ki baat he ki Shoukat Ali ji ab jivit nahin.fir bhi wo apne aawaj ki vajah sey jindaa Hein...aur jinda rahengey..please upload more songs of this great singer ..please
100 time better than gurdas maan. So clear understanding true legend. Iam from India🇮🇳 but these are true legends. Pakistan🇵🇰 not utilize these legends
It is true that shauk Ali Shahab was the first singer who sang challa first time in the year 1977, Baba Gurdass Maan Shahab sang challa after ten years. But please don't compare them both are living legends of Punjabi folk singing. We are most unlucky persons because this disgusting Partition, partitioned many legendary people- our legendary cultural heritage. Isley ab aur mat divide Karo. Politicians mat bano.
exactly just imagine if circumstances would not had led to partition nd we would have lived with peace and harmony then i dont think that world would look at us in each and every field...we would together been have most beautiful thing in this whole world
We are happy with our freedom otherwise we would have been suffering on the hands of moodi and his ghunday bjb kuttay so thanks but no thanks we are proud pakistanis happy that we got our independence at the right time even before you on 14th August
