    ‘Maine usay phone kia’: Farhan Saeed opens up about Bollywood debut opposite Urvashi Rautela

    Currently riding high on the success of his blockbuster drama, Mere Humsafar opposite Hania Aamir, singer-actor Farhan Saeed has opened up about his Bollywood debut, which never saw the light of the day.

    The Suno Chanda star revealed that he was earlier offered a Bollywood film because of his hit songs.

     “I was offered a Bollywood film with Mithun Chakraborty’s son, which also starred Urvashi Rautela. But Urvashi and I backed out of it together because we realized it was not something that we wanted to do.” He shared that upon returning to Pakistan after making music for Bollywood, he was offered Udaari which became a huge hit.

    He made that decision over the phone with the Pagalpanti diva.

    Now, years down the line, Saeed has been enjoying acting and is looking forward to his Lollywood debut, Tich Button soon.

    Farhan has sung Bollywood songs like “Thori Dair Aur Teher Jaa”.

    Recently he also broke his silence on the public speculation about his personal life and equation with partner Urwa Hocane.

    While getting candid about it, he stated that the constant speculation and interference in his personal life is a part of his job as when fans shower him with so much love it is understandable that they are emotionally invested and want to know more.

    “Ideally, I think to comment on the things which are shared but that’s idealism. When you are famous and in the public eye, there is always a price to pay. Criticism and praise come hand in hand. Just answer want you to want to and ignore other things.”

    The Suno Chanda star added further that he just answers what he wishes to and ignores everything else as every job comes with its advantages and disadvantages.

    Earlier last year it was reported that Farhan and Urwa have parted ways amicably, however recently some news portals informed that maybe the couple has reconciled. However the Udaari pair has never made a public statement about their split or alleged patch-up.

    Senior actor Aijaz Aslam recently appeared with his wife Sabeen on The Couple Show hosted by Aagha Ali and Hina Altaf.

    On being asked about a leading lady who has attitude problems, unprofessional and needs to work on her behaviour, the Nand star gave a shocking answer.

    Aijaz named Urwa Hocane and stated, “Although I haven’t worked with her but I have heard (from friends and colleagues) that it is Urwa, she gets very angry on the sets, quickly loses her temper and even instructs the director on creative aspects.”

    The hosting duo kept nodding while Aslam was talking, however Aagha mentioned later that he recently met the Tich Button diva at an event and felt that she was grounded.

    Last year the Udaari star revealed that she regrets leaving Meray Paas Tum Ho after shooting a schedule of it.

    Appearing on Vasay Chaudhry’s show Ghabrana Mana Hai, Urwa said: “It is one of my biggest regrets and yes I was offered the role of Miss Hania in Meray Paas Tum Ho.”

    The actor further revealed that she had even shot a few scenes for the drama. During the show, Chaudhry also played a clip from the drama serial that featured Urwa and Humayun Saeed.

    Urwa further shared: “After wrapping up my initial shoot, I started working on the production of my upcoming film Tich Button when Nadeem Baig called me and said that Mohammad Ahmed Sahab, who was playing the role of my father, has to leave for Canada so I had to spare a week to shoot my scenes with him.”

    “At that point, it was impossible for me as I was so caught up in production work. So I had to leave the project because of the date clash and I regret my decision,” said the actor further.

    Hira Mani was later roped in to play Miss Hania and the actor received a lot of applause for her performance. Meray Paas Tum Ho was a blockbuster hit breaking all records and the finale was even screened in cinemas with sold-out shows.

    Meanwhile, Hocane also talked about her first venture as a producer Tich Button which features Farhan Saeed, Iman Aly, Sonya Hussayn and Feroze Khan.

    “The film will be release, once the cinemas are fully operational again,” said Hocane.

  • Indian musicians plagiarise OST of ‘Baaghi’, Shuja Haider claims

    Pakistani singer, Shuja Haider has accused Indian music directors of plagiarising his popular original soundtrack for the drama Baaghi released in 2017.

    The singer shared the copied Indian version, Pia Re Piya on his Instagram and lashed out at its music directors.

    He wrote, “Indian Music directors Yasser Desai and Rashid Khan copied my original song ‘Baaghi’ and I am not proud of it. Absolutely not!”

    Haider has decided to take legal action against the music directors of ‘Piya Re Piya’.

    While talking to Dawn Images, he said, “They’ve copied the entire verse. I’m going to look into how to pursue this further because these people have started copying [Pakistani content] a lot. They not only copy melodies, they copy lyrics as well. Look at Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan’s work. They’ve gone too far; they are copying our content whenever they please and there’s no one to say anything to them. I definitely feel something should be done about this.

    “I am going to talk to my lawyer. I am going to talk to people who can help me with this. I don’t think I should take it lightly. If you look at the credits, the composer of the song is written as Rashid Khan. This is a criminal act. They don’t even give due credit. If you’d framed the song as a cover and given credit, it would still be okay.”

    Pia Re Piya released on February 12 and is sung by Yaseer Desai and composed by Rashid Khan. Anjan Sagri and Rashid Khan have written the lyrics of the song.

    You can check the similarities between both songs.

    In 2019, Farhan Saeed also accused Bollywood musician, Salim Merchant of plagiarising his song, ‘Roiyaan’.
