KARACHI:
After tying the knot, Hasan Raheem seems in no mood to take a break. Instead, the singer is already gearing up to dive back into music. Just last week, pictures and videos from his actual wedding went viral online, with many fans assuming it was yet another publicity stunt. Their skepticism wasn’t unfounded – back in April, Hasan had staged a fake wedding as a teaser for his song MEMORIES. This time though, he came clean, posting pictures with his wife and confirming with a simple note: “Real hai” (It’s real).
Now, Hasan has once again hijacked Instagram, this time with a series of cryptic teasers. On Tuesday, he posted three reels captioned “P”, “K” and “D”, with the hashtag #AlbumMode.
Each reel carries its own voiceover. The first features Hasan himself saying, “Uska bohot ehsan hai mujhpe, upar wale ne hamesha mere gunahon pe parda dala hai” (I am indebted to Him, the Creator has always hidden my sins). The second switches to a woman’s voice: “Hasan if you want to be in my life, you’re gonna have to leave these vices behind.” The third ends on a male voiceover: “Hasan zindagi ka aakhri paigham mohabbat hai, apka aakhri taaruf, Hasan ka aakhri taruf yeh hai ke woh mohabbat kar sakta hai, woh mohabbat mahsus kar sakta hai” (Hasan’s life’s last message is love. Your final introduction, Hasan’s final introduction, is that he can love and that he is capable of receiving love). The visuals weave through glitchy cityscapes drenched in pink.
Fans, unsurprisingly, are hooked. One commented, “Hasan Bhai apne pura Insta hijack kiya hua hai” (Hasan brother, you’ve hijacked the entire Instagram).
Another teased, “Hasan ke sirf do moods hain: nachna ya gaana” (Hasan has only two moods: dancing or singing).
A third asked, “Bhai shaadi ki chuttiyan nahi karoge?” (Brother, won’t you take a honeymoon break?).
While another summed it up with, “Brother is suffering from extreme success and aura.”
