Produced by Tarun Chaudhary and Omer Ahmad, the music label Tarish aims to bring together Indian and Pakistani musicians, despite tension between their neighboring countries. Tarish was established earlier this year and with the success of its latest collaboration with Atif Aslam and Sajal Aly, they are planning to release a song every month.
“The plan is to release 12 songs a year with six singers from India and six from Pakistan,” the label’s Pakistani co-owner, Ahmed, said in a recent interview. “We’ll release a song every month.”
The label’s first release featured emerging artists Arham Khattak and Saad Sultan. Their latest track Rafta Rafta, was shot in the scenic mountains of Skardu, Gilgit-Baltistan. The song was written by Indian singer and songwriter Raj Ranjodh and Pakistani director Hassam Baloch.
