‘Alfaaz’ Tops Charts in Pakistan and India
The Urdu-Punjabi song has climbed Spotify’s charts in several markets. According to the reported rankings, Alfaaz reached number one on Spotify’s Top 50 charts in both Pakistan and India.
The track’s success follows a strong showing on the UK’s Official Asian Music Chart, where it reached second place. It also displaced Straight Up by MXRCI and Karan Aujla from the top position, according to the report.
The song’s blend of Urdu and Punjabi lyrics has helped it connect with listeners beyond its home market, extending its reach to international audiences.
Giraffe Studio Calls Success ‘Unprecedented’
Giraffe, the studio behind Alfaaz, described the song’s performance as “unprecedented” for a Pakistani track. The studio said its success demonstrated how widely a song can travel when it finds an audience.
The studio was co-founded by producer Zulfiqar J Khan, widely known as Xulfi. It has also celebrated chart success with Majboor, performed by Sheheryar Rehan and Zoha Waseem.
Released last year, Majboor topped Spotify’s Pakistan chart and reached second place on the India chart.
Giraffe said the two songs followed different creative paths and reflected the individual artists behind them. Together, the studio added, they showed the opportunities that emerge when compelling music connects with listeners and reaches new audiences.
