Ali Sethi dropped his music video “Rung” yesterday which is being praised by his fans for the lush scenery as well as his melodious voice. The singer had been teasing the arrival of the new track since a month ago when he dropped a screencap featuring two dancers from the video along with the caption explaining the meaning of “rung”, which was ardor or passion.

The music video was directed by Umar Riaz and Diane Desobeau and it was shot both in Lahore and New York. It comes across as a celebration of diversity and love as it features people enjoying the spring season who come from different backgrounds: an old couple listening to music together, two young boys dancing near a river and two trans women dancing in a courtyard with the singer’s voice crooning in the background.
