RFAK and Aima Baig reminisce romantic folklore of Heer Ranjha in Heeray


Ustad Rahat Fateh Ali Khan brings the story of Heer and Ranjha to the canvas of Coke Studio this season, with a rendition that represents new avenues both for him, musically, and for the timeless love saga that has come to us through the poetry of Waris Shah. Heer and Ranjha are a metaphor for selfless love that survives in the face of tragedy and the pain that comes from separation. Their story has survived through centuries, recounted in poetry, music and art – a lesson depicting the strength of love. Khan Sahab brings new hues to the tale this season, with a modern rendition of the saga, featuring Aima Baig as the voice of Heer. In retelling the story with contemporary sounds and harmonies, Khan Sahab hopes that the message of Heer and Ranjha’s love will reach the young Heers and Ranjhas of today.
