Actress Lisa Ray, who featured in Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan’s iconic song Afreen Afreen, recently revealed that she wants to move on from her association with the song. The 1996 ghazal track was a mix of indie pop and fusion music, composed and sung by Khan with lyrics by Javed Akhtar. In a social media post, the 51-year-old actress admitted that she felt uncomfortable sharing or celebrating the song as it reinforced her identity. She also acknowledged the emotional power of music and its ability to evoke memories of a specific moment in time.
The actress wrote on Instagram, “I must confess that I have felt uncomfortable sharing or celebrating the #AfreenAfreen success video and maestro #nusratfatehalikhan’s iconic song from the 90s because I identified so strongly with it. The song still often plays at the juncture of events where I’m invited to talk about other aspects of my life and I shrug inwardly, offering a polite smile.
Reflecting on the passing of influential artists over the decades, he acknowledged the song’s potential to evoke emotional reactions associated with one’s past. He continued, “Today, when I heard in my youth that great troubadours are passing into the light, I recognize the power of a song to evoke an emotional response in an audience that is who you once were – one in time.” Tied to the moment. Which is often defined by the hope, wonder and optimism of youth. So surely listening to this song today is not about a personal engagement, but represents a universal sacrament – the first At the same time as falling in love, writing your first poem, planning your future—a pitch, a note, a video that reminds us of the world of beauty and possibility and innocence that once was. But really, today What a revelation that other people are also understanding this truth and freeing me from association with the song, for reasons above and beyond 🙏 (I’m just walking in the desert 😂).”
On the work front, Lisa Ray is back on TV with Prime Video’s show, Four More Shots Please as Samara Kapoor. He was last seen in 99 Songs, produced by AR Rahman.
