MUMBAI: Likee, the pioneering global short video creation platform from Singapore based BIGO Technology collaborated with VYRL Originals, Universal Music India’s platform dedicated to promoting and building the category and culture of non-film music in India. This collaboration is to promote the most-awaited music video of the year #Intezaar.
The Intezaar song is composed and written by Mithoon and features Bollywood favorites Arijit Singh and Asees Kaur.

With Mohit Suri creative vision and inputs, this video has been instrumental in creating a one-of-its-kind nonfilm musical experience.
