Bunny (Deewana)
- 28 days ago
#song deewana aur 'ho jaoonga deewana' as a lot of people call it was a huge hit for me because of its quirky video directed by that great director Yasser Akhtar. This was a collaboration between myself, Rizwan (Riz) Khan, Nadeem Asad, and Jawad Haider.
#Deewana also has a bit of a story behind it. I came across Mohammad Ali Shyaki in the parking lot of the Pearl in Karachi. He asked me to listen to this great new Indian song he'd just heard. We sat in his car while the song played on the car stereo. After listening to the first verse I remarked it was a crap song. He hurled choice expletives at me accusing me of having absolutely no musical taste. The song was 'Yeh kali kali ankhein' and may not have been amongst Anu Malik's best works. However, the first two lines kept replaying in my head.
So when I got home I took the guitar out and started working on this. The next day Jawad Haider and Nadeem Asad came over and we worked on the words and arrangement. I was recording at Sonic studios in those days and so we went in there, laid down the basic tracks then asked Riz Khan to come in with his guitar and other gear. The song was recorded mixed and released within the month. While it was widely accepted by the listeners as a typical Bunny song, it wasn't until Yasser did the music video that the song became a massive hit.
I've put together a few clips and redone the video. Having lost the master audio recording I had to pick up- this poor quality recording from the net and tried my best to polish it up. So please excuse the audio quality.
