I’m always in awe of what we are capable of putting together, it really takes a village to make this shit happen. I can’t be more grateful to have a village that’s so determined to make what we do such a huge success.
From ideation to execution, the last 6 months have been one of the best experiences of my career. From marketing the album in a way Pakistan has never seen before, to doing a successful album tour with 17000+ people. Controlling every aspect from the stage to the ticketing, we aimed to create an experience for our fans which they’ve never gotten in Pakistan before.
Back when we did Nautanki we thought we had set the bar high and it would be tough to follow through but we just ended up raising it even higher. I’m glad we’re paving the way for future musicians to know how far they can push their boundaries and succeed.
To my village, it was a pleasure working with all of you and setting a mark in history. Until next time.

It’s taken me months to write this out because I just didn’t have the right words for what a rollercoaster 2024 has been. Seeing my family go through another tough time this year and ending it with huge loss is something that no one can really get over, but what I’ve come to terms with is being thankful is what helps you move forward. So this post is not going to be about what I lost but what I am thankful for in 2024:
I started off the year with celebrating my sister in law’s birthday and it was an amazing time that I will never forget. I got to visit the Holy Kaaba and take my mother and wife with me which is a huge milestone in my life.
I got to spend a lot of time with my brother before I lost him and I will always hold that very close to my heart. We won battles together but when Allah has a plan for you there’s no battle that can be waged against that. All I can say was I might have lost my brother but he left me with multiple siblings all taking care of us.
I ended up travelling to 23 cities, 7 countries and taking 40 flights and ended the year selling out shows in NA with my brothers Hasan and Sheheryar. We ended up creating a platform in Pakistan to bring entertainment to Pakistan. I’m grateful to my partners who treat me like family and have helped grow Ticket Wala into the beast it is today.
I’m thankful for having a new member in the household ‘Cookie’ , and to have saved her from a deadly illness. She’s brought us joy and laughter through our tough times and kept us busy.
I’m grateful for my wife, family and friends taking care of me during one of the most difficult periods in life, for all the new people I met this year, for friends who are like my family, for being able to tour multiple countries this year!
I wish 2025 brings me peace, happiness, health and respect. I wish 2025 allows me to help others around me. Because honestly what 2024 has taught me is that, that apart from these things nothing else matters.
The decks may be empty, but your music continues to echo through every beat and every set. This Friday, from 6pm to 7pm, we honor you, Shakir Abedeen, in the way you lived—in rhythm and sound. Kicking off the tribute, Zayan Abedeen and Aqib Hanifa will pay homage to your unforgettable legacy, remixing and sharing the sound you gifted to us.
Really excited to see this show come to life after a conversation @hasan_raheem and I have been having for months. Our idea was to curate the performance with a band, but the questions we always ask is ‘What are we doing that’s different and how are we making our mark in this industry?'
Really proud of the band and the team that worked effortlessly for months to make this happen!
@shehryarkh_n has always been a phenomenal producer and endlessly worked to curate the light show as well as the sound for the band.
@itsshamsher and @varqafaraid are two musical geniuses that reworked all of the tracks tremendously and brought them in a new light!
@yahyaaftab@thatlil.kid@saad_naseem26@dervaish.jj@rbotejue worked behind the scenes to make sure this show was a successful one and had my back throughout!
And as always @ticketwalapk that made sure this event was a sold out one and streamlined all the access to the event!
I’m very proud of the team that worked on this and the effort that everyone put in to this production. We blew Lahore’s mind and just know we’re coming to all the major cities very very soon!
