Pakistani singer Hasan Raheem released his new single\u00a0Bewajah\u00a0featuring Umair on March 28, with a music video filmed in Gilgit, Pakistan.<\/p>\n
The video plays on traditional clothing, with Raheem and the cast surrounded by Pakistan\u2019s stunning views, the country\u2019s polo players, and Gilgiti dances. In an\u00a0interview with\u00a0Forbes, Raheem had discussed his native roots to Gilgit Baltistan and how his signature Gilgiti-dance moves are inspired by his upbringing.<\/p>\n
The singer also shared behind-the-scenes pictures of his trip to the northern region.<\/p>\n
“Thank-you to my team for backing me up and taking an initiative in this direction,” he captioned a post on Instagram. In February, Raheem also participated in the DKP fundraiser, the funds from which he said “will be going to the deserving people of Gilgit Baltistan.”<\/p>\n
The singer also shared clips from the music video to his Instagram, thanking his fans for their response. \u201cNo words for the love my fam has shown me on BEWAJAH,” he captioned a post, adding “I don\u2019t like my own words because they won\u2019t be able to do justice to your love.”
\nFurther, Raheem wrote about freestyle polo, known as the Game of Kings, which is being played in the video. \u201cNo referees, no rules, just RAW polo. It\u2019s very different from a normal polo game.<\/p>\n
It has a rich history so dive yourself and find out more about the game. It\u2019s showcased globally at Shandur polo festival every year. (If you haven\u2019t watched it yet you\u2019re probably missing out)\u201d, he wrote.<\/p>\n
Fans appreciated the singer’s love for culture, applauding his dedication to traditional melodies.<\/p>\n
One user also highlighted the cinematography of the music video, terming it unreal.<\/p>\n
Others highlighted Raheem\u2019s dedication to sportsmanship and honouring the Polo sport.<\/p>\n
As Raheem’s music video continues to top charts, it is certain that he will change the context of culture and tradition in Pakistani pop culture.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
