Actress Sajal Ali is basking in Pakistani limelight these days. With two breathtaking dramas ‘Yakeen Ka Safar‘ and ‘O Rungreza‘ up her sleeve, Sajal is quite the talk of the town. Her drama ‘O Rungreza‘ has garnered her massive recognition, for her brilliant portrayal of ‘Sassi,’ a character who is both feisty, ruthless and hilariously arrogant. And while the drama is being lauded by both critics and audiences alike, the heart-achingly adoring soundtrack to the drama has also been embraced.
The original soundtrack titled ‘O Rungreza’ is a sweet touching ode to the drama’s protagonists
The lovable Qasim who is in love with the daring Sassi plays a rang wala at a dye shop. It is his story that forms the pinnacle of the song. The drama in itself is visually colorful, with either a splatter of dye that conjures Qasim’s love or twirls amidst endless hanging dupattas where we often see him.
