Adnan Sami Revisits ‘Meri Yaad’ Memories With Behind-the-Scenes Photos
Mumbai — Singer Adnan Sami revisited memories from the making of his 2002 music video “Meri Yaad” from the album “Tera Chehra,” sharing behind-the-scenes images from his archives.
Sami posted the throwback photos on Instagram, including a glimpse of him playing a black piano during the shoot.
“Scrolling through the archives always brings back memories. Found some behind the scenes of filming the music video for Meri Yaad,” he wrote in the caption.
Earlier this year, Sami recalled how his song “Kabhi Toh Nazar Milao,” featuring Aditi Govitrikar, came together unexpectedly within minutes one evening after dinner.
Sami performs Indian and Western music in several languages, including Hindi, Urdu, English, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada and Malayalam. He has received the Padma Shri for his contribution to music.
The piano has been one of his most prominent instruments, and he has been credited as “the first musician to have played the santoor and Indian classical music on the piano.”
Sami was raised and educated in the United Kingdom. He was previously a Canadian citizen before becoming a naturalized Indian citizen in 2016.
His popular songs include “Lift Karadey,” “Kabhi To Nazar Milao,” “Kabhi Nahi,” “Tera Chehra,” “Bheegi Bheegi Raaton Mein” and “Bhar Do Jholi Meri.”
On Sept. 7, Sami also spoke about how his life changed after becoming an Indian citizen during a conversation with trade analyst Komal Nahta on “Game Changers: The Music Series.”
“It was never difficult for me to get work in India when I was a Pakistani citizen. A lot of things changed after I got Indian citizenship. Main India ka ho gaya aur India mera ho gaya,” Sami said. (Source: IANS)
