The internet sensation and Pakistani singing sensation, Chahat Fateh Ali Khan, whose real name is Kashif Rana, has once again taken the online world by storm with the release of his much-anticipated anthem for the upcoming ICC World Cup 2023 in India.
Known for his humorous and viral songs, Chahat Fateh Ali Khan drops his latest creation on various social media platforms, sending his fans into a frenzy of excitement.
In the music video, Chahat Fateh Ali Khan himself takes center stage, dancing with excitement and passionately repeating the lyrics, “Jeete Gye Bi Jeete Gye,” which translates to “We will win, no matter what,”
As the song unfolds, the lyrics shift their focus to Pakistan’s much-anticipated match against Australia, invoking a sense of faith with the words “InshAllah Jeeteingay,” which means “With the grace of Allah, we shall win.” This powerful message of hope and determination vibrates deeply with cricket enthusiasts across Pakistan.
Unsurprisingly, the video quickly went viral, sparking a wave of reactions from netizens nationwide. While many commended the artist for his tireless support for the national cricket team and praised his creativity, others had mixed feelings about his distinctive musical style.
Chahat Fateh Ali Khan initially gained prominence when he revealed his unique voice to the anthem of the eighth season of the Pakistan Super League (PSL8), solidifying his status as an online sensation and musical talent.
What sets Chahat Fateh Ali Khan apart from many others is his unconventional journey. Before capturing the online world with his music, he had a stint as a first-class cricketer in Pakistan. Details reveal that he played two first-class games for the Lahore region during the Quaid-e-Azam Trophy season in 1983-84, amassing a total of 16 runs in three innings. In one notable interview, Khan claimed that Pakistan’s former Test cricketer Aaqib Javed played under his captaincy during school cricket, a statement that caused some controversy and led to online trolling. Nonetheless, Chahat Fateh Ali Khan’s complicated journey continues to captivate fans, both for his music and his unique cricketing past.
