Background

[edit]

The track "Chand Roshan Chamakta Sitara Rahe" was originally performed by Munawar Sultana and Dilshad Begum soon after Pakistan's independence in August 1947.[a] "Mere Dhol Sipahya" was originally performed in Punjabi by Noor Jehan to tribute the armed forces and martyrs during the 1965 war.[2][3] The track "Har Ghari Tayyar Kamran", originally performed by Khalid Waheed during 1970s to 1980s, was remade and released for the Defence Day in September 2020.[4][5][6]

In 2015, tracks like "Tu Thori Dair" and "Yeh Banday Mitti Kay Banday" were released in honour of Operation Zarb-e-Azb.[7][8] The former one was also recreated as "Thodi Der" with Shreya Ghoshal as co-singer with Farhan Saeed, for 2017 Hindi film Half Girlfriend.[9]

Musician Sahir Ali Bagga and lyricist Imran Raza have collaborated on a number of tracks that are featured in the album.[10][11][12][13]

"Shukriya Pakistan" was originally released for the Independence Day in August 2014.[14] It is also adapted by ARY Digital Network as a campaign to celebrate the occasion.[15]

To honour the martyrs and survivors of 2014 Peshawar school massacre, Bagga's son Azaan performed "Bara Dushman Bana Phirta Hai",[16][17] and then on their first anniversary, they released another track "Mujhe Dushman Ke Bachon Ko Parhana Hai".[18][19] On the fourth anniversary, Bagga's second son Zayer performed "Humain Agay Hi Jana Hai".[11]

In 2018, the song "Mujhey Agay Hi Jana Hai" was released for the Women's Day.[20] "Hamara Pakistan" was released in seven regional languages for the occasion of Pakistan Day.[21][22] "Kar Aghaaz Pakistan" was released for the Independence Day prior to the Plant for Pakistan campaign.[23] "Hamain Pyar Hai Pakistan Sae" was released for the Defence Day.[24][10]

After inspirations from the 2019 Jammu and Kashmir airstrikes and Abhinandan Varthaman's incident, the song "Har Dil Ki Awaz" was created, also known as "Pakistan Zindabad".[25] Bagga performed it in the closing ceremony during 2019 Pakistan Super League final, for the occasion of Pakistan Day.[12] The song was also copied in India by T. Raja Singh as "Hindustan Zindabad".[26]

ISPR collaborated with Hum TV's MD Productions for a 2019 television series Ehd-e-Wafa, which had two tracks; "Yaarian" and "Ehd E Wafa".[13][27][28]
