A decade removed sinceĀ Coke StudioāsĀ birth, we understand the Sound of the Nation needed to validate that it still owns the requisite chops toĀ deliverĀ a stirring rendition of the national treasure ā but then they produce this!
As we sat there contemplating what went wrong, we came across a version of the very same National Anthem, donned by a 9-year-old, Ahmed for Nescafe Basement a year ago, and boy, there they wereĀ -the goosebumps we all have been eagerly yearning for.
