Looks like Pakistani cricketer Shahnawaz Dahani has another talent up his sleeve! A recent viral video caught Twitterati’s attention where Dahani’s vocal prowess became the subject of discussion.
In the video, the 24-year-old cricket player is seen singing a few verses of the song Jab Koi Baat covered by Atif Aslam and Shirley Setia. The off-beat, unsynchronized music and Dahani’s singing skills resulted in a humorous 29-second clip.
Originally posted by his fellow team member, Hassan Ali, who announced that there is a “New singer in town,” the video quickly stole netizens’ attention who couldn’t decide whether to laugh or applaud the star for his confidence.
While tweeps agreed that Dahani is better on the field than in a studio, some users went ahead to compare him with Chahat Fateh Ali Khan — the self proclaimed singer.
Competition to chahat fateh ali khan?
