Call unites 40 drummers for Pakistan Day chant

Song brings together artists of different age, gender and genre

KARACHI: Call The Band was recently in the limelight when they produced Hum Zalmi to serve as an anthem for the Pakistan Super League (PSL) franchise Peshawar Zalmi.

In an effort to honour Pakistan Day, held annually on March 23, the band has now brought together 40 drummers from all over the country to produce a 'chant'.

Patari Chief Operating Officer Ahmer Naqvi spoke to The Express Tribune and shared what Xulfi once told him about the song. He said, "Xulfi was very excited about the song, he called it 'one of the most bomb thing'. Plus, it was more about the process behind creating the song and the spirit of unity that came from bringing so many people together on one platform."

According to the participants of the chant, the movement aims to remind people that their minor accomplishments for Pakistan should be celebrated with the same fervor and pride that were once evident while chanting 'Pakistan Zindabad'.
