The ‘Baazi’ singer has now opened up on the matter in her recent conversation with a local media outlet and revealed the idea behind the cover.
Speaking of the cover, Baig said, “I didn’t know of Kaifi [Khalil] before, never heard of him or where is he from.”
“I just heard him, heard the song [Kahani Suno], and the composition, and I was in love [with it] right there and then. I fell in love with his voice and the lyrics, and those lyrics felt so relatable at that point in time,” she noted.
Baig said that she asked Kaifi to do a cover of his song and he agreed. “You can go ahead and do whatever you want with this song. In fact, I would love to hear this track in your voice,” she quoted the Baloch singer.
