~Composed by Ali Sethi, the song is an ode to ‘QatilHaseenas’ ~
Pakistan :Having dropped initial glimpses from the show and with swelling anticipation, Zee5 Globalha is now released the original soundtrack of Zindagi’s next original. Titled ‘QatilHaseenaonKeNaam’ based on the title of the show, the song is composed by ace writer and musician Ali Sethi, sung by Farheen Raza Jaffry, and penned by Farjad Nabi. The song takes viewers into a dark, gritty world of suspense and thrill and has a sensuous vibe.
“The song encapsulates the essence of this show and is the best possible invitation to it. It embodies a playful yet empowered feminine voice that I had wanted for the theme song. The mix of desi and western, contemporary, and vintage is simply brilliant. Kudos to the team behind it.” said Creator and Director of the show, Meenu Gaur.
“I loved working on this song — it allowed me to explore an old-fashioned cabaret vibe, the sort of smouldering item numbers that were all the rage in 1970s masala flicks. I’m so glad we got to showcase Farheen’s extraordinary voice too, along with Anthony Soshil’s vintage jazzy arrangement. The song is new-old, tender-harsh. I hope audiences like it as much as I do.” said Ali Sethi
"While writing the lyrics I wanted to translate the inner voices of the QatilHaseenas with verses that beguile, bewitch and burn. Ali Sethi has rendered them perfectly because of his rare power to inhabit several emotions simultaneously. I'd say it is the first desi noir song of its kind, echoing the vision of the series fully." shared Farjad Nabi the lyricist for the song.
QatilHaseenaonKeNaam is a compilation of seven stories of seven women who wrest back control and redefine the word femme fatale. Written by Farjad Nabi and Meenu Gaur, the series showcases stories of love, lust, power, and redemption woven in a web of betrayal, angst, and revenge.
