When Atif Aslam sang 'Aadat' for Kalyug, film-maker Mohit Suri paved the way for hungry Pakistani artistes to enter Bollywood's playback singing scene. The song was a chart-buster and while Atif moved on to lend his voice to other Bollywood projects, Mohit had roped in another Pakistani talent, Mustafa Zahid (lead vocalist of the Roxen band), for 'Tera Mera Rishta' and 'Toh Phir Aao', both huge hits from his Emraan Hashmi-starrer Awarapan.
While Atif Aslam and Mustafa Zahid are popular names in the sub-continent, Mohit is set to continue his musical romance with Pakistan in Balaji's Ek Villain.
Mustafa Zahid continues his tryst with success in the form of a haunting melody called 'Zaroorat' in Ek Villain, composed and written by Mithoon. This will be his third Mohit Suri film (the first two being Awarapan and Aashiqui 2) and third Balaji film (the first two being Shootout At Wadala and Ragini MMS 2.)
Incidentally, 'Zaroorat' will be the third track from the film to release on May 29, after 'Galliyan' and 'Banjaara', both of which swiftly raced up the popularity charts.
If this wasn't Pakistan enough, in Ek Villain Suri has introduced a Lahore-based band, Soch, for a track that is unusually titled 'Awari'. Composed, rendered and written by youngsters Adnan Dhuul and Rabbi Ahmed, the romantic rock number will additionally feature the vocals of the US-based Momina Mustehsan who happens to be a bio-medical engineering student with a passion for music.
The music being among the major highlights of the film, the Ek Villain producers plan to bring the Pakistani talents for promotional music concerts in Dubai and Delhi in June.
