Daring to attempt something different from the usual in the music industry is challenging and requires courage, but that is what the duo Sharib-Toshi have tried doing for debut in their first cross-country Sufi Collaboration with Hashim Ahmedani to come out with the music single Salle Alla.
The talented musical duo Sharib-Toshi never fails to mesmerize us, and this time, they have raised the bar yet again with their latest Sufi single, “Salle Alla,” featuring the talented Pakistani artist Hashim Ahmedani, who is also the producer of the single. This is Sharib-Toshi’s first Pakistani collaboration, and the single will be released on August 30, 2024, across digital platforms under Hashim Ahmedani Production.
The Sufi single “Salle Alla” is a special cross-country collaboration that depicts a deep expression of divine union and love. The lyrics of the kalam expresses the soul’s quest for a connection with the divine, transcending worldly concerns. The idea for this collaboration with Sharib-Toshi first came from versatile ace composer and music producer Alex Shahbaz, who wanted to create an original piece with live recorded instruments. This collaboration features instrumentalists who came together to make this single extraordinary. The strings were played by Georgian artist Nino Chikviladze, the tabla by Joshua Amjad, who has been a part of Coke Studio, the harmonium by Simon, and the guitar by the rising talent Musa.
When asked about the collaboration, the duo Sharib-Toshi said, “Daring to try something different from the crowd, especially in the music industry, takes immense courage. We have always wanted to make the Sufi genre popular among the current generation, which is a huge challenge and requires faith in oneself. When we heard the idea from producer Hashim and composer Alex, we were instantly on board. This collaboration not only entertains the audience but also serves as a wonderful opportunity to unite people across the country through Sufi music. We’re excited about working together more and allowing music to bridge cultural divides.”
The beautiful Sufi lyrics are penned by lyricist Zaheer Zarf and sung by Sharib-Toshi. Speaking about their first collaboration with Bollywood artists, Hashim and Alex shared, “This track is a testament to the fact that music transcends all barriers. Working with the brothers was an incredible experience and a dream come true for me. Their humility is reflected in their music, and we can’t wait for our audience to witness the magic of this single. We hope to create new memories through this collaboration.”
The collaboration brings an absolutely harmonious track that celebrates brilliant, soulful music and will undoubtedly be a great way to connect with music lovers worldwide. So, everyone, be sure to check out the song on August 30, 2024.
