Alif’s latest music video marks the comeback of veteran actress Farida Jalal

Musician Alif aka Mohammed Muneem Nazir’s latest release I Am Jaadugar, is a song that brings to life the heartfelt journey of a young boy, whose imagination is nurtured by his grandmother, in a world that pushes him towards more conventional paths. The track also marks the comeback of veteran actress Farida Jalal on-screen, who steps into the role of the grandmother.
The song sets a powerful reminder for the young generation, with the words Jaadugar Hain Tu (You are a magician). Sharing his thoughts about the song, Mohammad Muneem says, “This song is very close to my heart. It’s about love, belief and the special bond I had with my grandmother. She always saw magic in everything I did, even when others couldn’t. She would always remind me of ‘Obras chu waav dawa’ (dark clouds & heavy rains, strong winds are like medicine). With I Am Jaadugar, I hope to remind people, especially adults, that we are all still capable of magic, if we believe in it.”

Farida Jalal, reflecting on her role in the music video says, “This song brought back the charm of Shaka Laka Boom Boom, where imagination ruled over everything. Playing the grandmother was a special experience for me, as it represents the beauty of believing in the impossible. It’s a reminder that no matter how old we get, magic is always a part of us.”
The music video, featuring Aizah Jeelani, Farida Jalal and Puja Sarup, brings a touching narrative to life with visuals that capture the essence of childhood and adult nostalgia simultaneously. The song is now available across all streaming platforms.
