Coke Studio

Was listening to some archived songs from strings and heard this particular song that strings actually reperformed at the Coke studio.

Coke studio is actually a pakistani TV show where top notch pakistani artists perform their songs which are generally fusioned with different kinds of music cultures. Ali zafar, atif aslam, Josh, Strings and many more.
The song i got hold of was "sar kiye yeh pahar" and it was recreated with some typical eastern flavor mixed with strings special rock. The song easily made it to the list of my all time favorite remixes/recreations. I have heard the original song before, actually i had a strings audio cassette sometime back with that song. :)



Coming back to Coke studio, i liked the concept and am wondering why this show havent made the debut in india yet. It reminds of MTV unplugged, which i used to watch regularly but it somehow vanished from MTV india.
