Singer Turns Fan Covers Into New Collaboration Opportunity
Pakistani singer Asim Azhar has announced a special opportunity for one talented fan to collaborate with him on the official unplugged version of his popular Punjabi track, Khabbay Sajjay.
The singer revealed the plan through an Instagram reel on Thursday after noticing a growing number of musicians and cover artists performing their own versions of the song.
Azhar said he had been impressed by the creativity and talent shown in the covers shared across social media.
He now wants to select one artist to join him for an officially released unplugged version of the track.
The singer asked his followers to tag their favourite cover artists in the comments section of his latest reel.
Artists who have already covered Khabbay Sajjay can also tag themselves for a chance to be noticed.
Azhar said the best performer would be selected to collaborate with him on the project.
Asim Azhar Says Opportunity Is ‘Not a Drill’
Azhar later shared additional details through his Instagram Stories.
He stressed that the announcement was genuine and described the opportunity as “not a drill.”
The singer said watching so many musicians perform his song had made him happy and inspired him to create something special with his audience.
He encouraged fans to nominate artists who had already released their own versions of Khabbay Sajjay.
The chosen musician will appear on the official unplugged recording alongside Azhar.
The collaboration will also receive an official release rather than remaining limited to a social media performance.
Azhar further hinted that the project could include a video featuring the selected cover artist.
However, complete details about the selection process, recording schedule and release date have not yet been announced.
The initiative gives emerging singers and musicians an opportunity to work directly with one of Pakistan’s leading contemporary music artists.
