Ali Zafar and Aima Baig star in the ISPR's new Pakistan Day song

Ali Zafar and Aima Baig star in the Pakistan military's latest song, Aik Qaum, Aik Manzil. The song has been released to commemorate the approaching Pakistan Day.

It has been written by Abid Ahsan.

The music video, uploaded on the ISPR’s official YouTube page, begins with the inspiring words of the founder of Pakistan, Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah, as he addressed the nation soon after independence, saying, "We have rendered great sacrifices to achieve Pakistan". This is complemented with archival footage displaying the struggle of independence, and the horrors of the biggest mass migration in human history.

Both singers are dressed in green for the music video — Zafar wears a white kurta with a light green waistcoat, while Baig dons green shalwar kameez.

The video also pays homage to frontline health workers and Ali Sadpara, the mountaineer who went missing while scaling the K2.

Baig was also one of the singers of PSL anthem Groove Mera, which was met with mixed reactions. Some people loved the song while others weren't too keen on it.
