Musicians Faheem Abdullah and Arslan Nizami, hailing from Kashmir, will be making their debut with Mohit Suri’s upcoming romantic-drama Siayaara. The recently released title song of the film has been sung by Faheem and composed by the two along with Tanishk Bagchi.

Speaking about making the music for the film, Faheem said, “It is an honour to represent Kashmir in the Hindi film industry with our musical debut in Saiyaara. Our state has beautiful people and incredible artists. I’m really happy that two Kashmiri boys have worked really hard to land this project of a lifetime and are trying to make a name for themselves in the Hindi film industry. It is quite an overwhelming moment for me, my family, my friends and my well-wishers.”

Arslan added, “I wouldn’t have believed if people told me a couple of years earlier that I would get a chance to compose a song for a big film in the Hindi film industry. So, there was no way that I was dreaming that I would get a chance to compose for Mohit Suri in his directorial! This is an incredible milestone moment for my career, and I couldn’t be happier, prouder. I’m proud that two Kashmiri boys are here in Mumbai and trying to show what we can do to the whole country. I know we will work exceptionally hard in the near future to make our state prouder, and I thank Mohit Suri sir for his unflinching belief in us.”

The film also marks the debut of Ananya Panday’s cousin, Ahaan Panday. It also stars Aneet Padda alongside him.

Produced by Yash Raj Film’s CEO Akshaye Widhani, Saiyaara is set to hit theatres worldwide on July 18.
