Rohail Hyatt was once Jami’s 'King', not anymore

Rohail Hyatt has been spending a good chunk of his time trying his luck on Twitter - however, sadly to no avail. The founding member of Vital Signs had taken the same medium to share that he will not be producing Coke Studio anymore. Hyatt has been in cross-hair since he became an avid tweep.

Last week, Hyatt and singer-turned-politician Jawad Ahmad locked horns on the micro-blogging app after the former Coke Studio producer expressed his support for Prime Minister Imran Khan's comments regarding the rise in sexual violence in the country.

Now, seems like he has lost another one of his industry peers. Filmmaker Jami shared Hyatt's recent opinions about the ongoing political unrest has left him disappointed. The Moor director was responding to one of the tweets by the musician.

"Never thought I'd get the chance to say this, I live in the Islamic Republic of Liberals!" Hyatt tweeted. The maestro's stance garnered criticism by fans and followers as well as Jami.

"You lost me, boss," the filmmaker shared, adding, "You were my King all this time." To this, Hyatt responded, "All kings must fall my trusted friend. New ones will come to replace them. Never despair inevitability! It's where we are all headed. Celebrate change! Smile."

"A bit sad today," Jami then replied. "You take care of yourself, boss."

"You too, bro! I'll send you happy vibes," Hyatt commented, adding, "Stay positive. Life is a lot more than politics and news feeds. There's so much beauty hidden everywhere. Open your heart and see the world through it. We are the miracle of creation itself. Take care!"

"Yes boss, trying to save it for others who are dependent on people like us,' Jami shared. "No option for me. Take care boss, you were the one."

Jami has always been vocal about how much he had looked up to Hyatt. In 2016, the two unexpectedly crossed paths while working up north. It was then Jami had shared that Hyatt was one of the first people to have shown trust in him. “Karavan had approached Bilal to direct the video for Rakh Aas as he was in great demand after the music video for Maula. Bilal then convinced them to sign me. Since we had a limited budget, Rohail gave his brand new camera — a DVX 1000 – to me,” he had reminisced.
