Abrar Qazi Brings Fresh Energy to His Upcoming Show With Rap Track

Kabhi Neem Neem Kabhi Shahad Shahad, starring Abrar Qazi in the lead role, is all set to captivate audiences with its compelling characters and refreshing storyline. After winning hearts with his performance in Yeh Hai Chahatein, Abrar returns to television with a role that promises both charm and depth. The show will premiere on June 6 at 8 PM on Star Plus.
But what truly sets Kabhi Neem Neem Kabhi Shahad Shahad apart is Abrar Qazi's rap track, Devi Gamladhari, which perfectly captures the mood and energy of the story. In a recent interview with ETimes, Abrar opened up about his debut as a singer and rapper. He shared, 'I'm super excited as this is my first time doing something like this, and that too on such a big platform! Honestly, I never imagined I'd rap, but the response from fans, friends, and family has been overwhelming."
Talking about his initial days, the actor shared an anecdote, 'It all began when our creative director asked me to lip-sync a fast-paced rap. I jokingly said I could rap, and she took it seriously! I gave it a try and recorded a sample on my phone, and the music director loved it. Next thing I know, I'm in the studio recording the final version."
'I've always loved rap and music, though I never shared this side of me publicly. Apart from acting, I'm also passionate about direction, editing, and even VFX," Abrar concluded.
A few weeks ago, at a press conference to launch the show, Abrar Qazi also spoke about the refreshing storyline of the show, saying, 'The focus is really on sweet, genuine interactions—those little moments that can feel real and honest. We've made a conscious effort to stay away from the typical cliches. So, even though it's a romantic love story at heart, it feels refreshing and authentic. It's joyful, it's full of connection, and hopefully, it leaves people smiling."
Furthermore, with its engaging and relatable storyline, Kabhi Neem Neem Kabhi Shahad Shahad is set to resonate with viewers of all ages, striking a chord with anyone who's ever experienced the ups and downs of life.

Abhishek Bachchan reveals how he's not gotten cynical despite failures: ‘It's difficult as people derive pleasure by rubbing it in your face but I'm not a bitter person'
Abhishek Bachchan who made his debut in the year 2000 with 'Refugee' hasn't seen an easy journey. He had a rocky start as his first few films didn't do well at the box office. His first hit was 'Dhoom'. Over the years, the actor has continued to battle criticism and failures, but just as one meets him today, he's always positive. His way of looking at things has never been negative. In a recent chat with ETimes, when asked how he's managed to not get cynical, the actor said, 'Of course, you get cynical. It's very difficult not to when on a weekly basis you're failing publicly and it's being rubbed in your face and people are deriving great pleasure by rubbing it in your face. So you get cynical, but you have to try your best to not remain cynical or be bitter about it. I'm not the kind of person who gets bitter. I'm always the kind of person who looks at the brighter side of life. I do think that life served me well most times and sometimes, it doesn't serve me well and that's all right.' Further when asked about how he's managed to maintain that childlike quality in him, he said, 'I don't know how I've been able to maintain that childlike quality and I don't even want to know. Because the minute I'll figure it out, I'll just lose it. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Is it legal?

It's about being genuine, right? I'm not somebody who can put on a facade and maintain it. If I fight with somebody and I'm sulking with somebody, I'll sulk for like an hour and then I'm done. That's just the personality I am.' The actor was recently seen in 'Kaalidhar Laapata' for which he's getting a lot of appreciation as it began streaming on Zee5 from July 4 onwards.

Amid Return Of ‘Kyunki Saas...', Desis Recall Iconic ‘Murder' By Tulsi Virani: ‘Goli Lagi Friday, Mara Woh Monday'
Last Updated: One of the most dramatic scenes in Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi was when Tulsi Virani shot her own son, Ansh Gujral. It's been 25 years since Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi first took over Indian television screens. As Ektaa Kapoor gears up to bring back the iconic soap with a whole new season and Smriti Irani returns as Tulsi Virani, fans can't help but drown in a wave of nostalgia. It was a time before streaming apps. Back then, TV meant sitting in front of the cable box at a fixed time every evening to catch the next episode. And if something dramatic happened, well, you had no choice but to wait till the next day or even the next week to find out what came next. The drama wasn't just in the story; it was in the way it was shown. Long pauses, loud background music, repeated close-ups and those never-ending zoom-ins from every possible angle. Scenes didn't move fast. They took their time. Slowly. Dramatically. And sometimes even unintentionally funny. One of the most dramatic scenes in Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi was when Tulsi shot her own son, Ansh Gujral, which marked a turning point in the story that viewers still remember clearly. But what made it even more unforgettable was the way it played out on screen. A viral post recently brought back that exact memory with a photo of Akashdeep Saigal as Ansh. The overlay text on it reads: 'Yaad hai voh episode jiss mein Tulsi ne iss ko Friday ko goli maari & yeh Monday ko gira tha? (Remember that episode where Tulsi shot him on Friday… and he finally fell on Monday?)" 'Ansh Gujral – if you also remember his face when you hear this name, then my friend you had a good childhood," read the caption shared along the post. In the comments under the post, fans were clearly enjoying the throwback. One user joked, 'He was in the air during the whole weekend," while another said, 'Now that's a 'cliffhanger." Someone else recalled, 'Oh yes! The exaggerated & dramatic times," 'Everyone was talking about that episode those days," a viewer wrote. 'When the gravity was on hold for the weekend," read another comment. Joining Smriti Irani in the much-awaited second season is Amar Upadhyay, returning as the beloved Mihir. Fan-favourite couple Hiten Tejwani and Gauri Pradhan will also be seen in the new chapter. Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi Season 2 is set to premiere on July 29 at 10:30 PM on Star Plus. The episodes will also be available on JioHotstar. view comments First Published: July 13, 2025, 08:00 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
