We’re living in such tough times, it means a lot to us to get this warmth and acceptance. We have crossed one million views within a week and it just goes to prove our point further. Because, with poignant lyrics, mesmerising vocals, simple melody and an even simpler message, Manzar was created for you – the people of the world. Manzar is an ode to humanity and I am ever so grateful to receive this love for my directorial debut.”

I’m really thankful that people have loved the song and they have supported us over social media. In times like this it’s very reassuring, gives us a reason to look forward to a better world”.
