Shireen Mazari terms latest rendition of Ko Ko Korina as a ‘massacre’

Coke Studio season 11’s rendition of Ahmed Rushdi’s classic song, Ko Ko Korina has garnered quite a few reviews. The track – featured in the last episode of the famous music show – was sung by Ahad Raza Mir and Momina Mustehsan. And Twitterati just couldn’t help but ridicule Ali Hamza and Zohaib Kazi for it.

The song has disappointed many, including Human Rights Minister Shireen Mazari, who believes that such a rendition of a great classic is nothing but a ‘massacre’.

In a tweet published Sunday, Mazari wrote, “Horrendous! Destroyed a great classic – why oh why did Coke Studio allow such a massacre of this classic song?”

Ko Ko Korina, a widely celebrated song, holds the stature of being Pakistan’s first pop song sung by pop singer Ahmed Rushdi.
