“Daanah pe Daanah lyrics and review




Amazing Amazing song, I have heard it probably a thousand times, a favourite of both my wife, my brother my darling 17 month niece


Coke Studio brings Balochi folk legend Akhtar Chanal Zahri and contemporary pop singer Komal Rizvi together in this captivating collaboration, “Daanah pe Daanah”. Originally written and composed by Zahri himself, the song fondly sings the praises of the province he hails from. Presenting an unconventional alliance, this Coke Studio rendition of the popular folk song fuses with Sindhi Sufic classic ‘Lal Meri Path’, taking both well-loved anthems to a new level.
Reborn against the backdrop of a modern funk groove, the song becomes a colorful musical demonstration of diversity with Zahri and Rizvi, two strong yet vastly different personalities, combining their voices in a symbolic celebration of individuality.
