High hopes and excitement: Fans can’t wait for Faris, Shae, Asim’s PSL anthem 

The eighth edition of Pakistan Super League (PSL) is just around the corner and fans are anxiously waiting for the highly-anticipated anthem. This year, an extremely promising collaboration between Faris Shafi, Shae Gill, Asim Azhar, and Abdullah Siddiqui has been announced, and the consequent anticipation is palpable.

Understandably, fans are taking to social media to share their takes on this mix of talent. While the responses are of varying degrees, an overarching feeling of looking forward to the release seems to be evident. 

Others can’t help but reminisce, given that Ali Zafar’s previous PSL anthems have stayed in the hearts of fans

Some people just hate having to wait

There were also a few people who had thoughts about the creative process in various ways 

With numerous hits under his wing, Azhar continues to be a fan favorite. Shafi has carved a niche for himself within the local rap framework. Gill, too, has been enjoying a fair deal of much-deserved praise, given that she and Ali Sethi gave the world the absolutely iconic Pasoori. Siddiqui continues to make a name for himself as well, and this will be his second PSL anthem production after last year’s Aagay Dekh, which featured Atif Aslam and Aima Baig. 

All in all, the interesting lineup has got people talking. The HBL Pakistan Super League 8 is to take place from February 13 to March 19 across four venues. Given that the whole show hits the road in less than a week, expectations for the new song are sky-high.
