The much talked about Coke Studio Pakistan song “Blockbuster” certainly lives up to its name, as evidenced by its popularity since its release two months ago. While social media users are busy creating Instagram reels with the popular song, musician Anshuman Sharma has used Artificial Intelligence (AI) to rendition “Blockbuster” with the vocals of legendary singer Mohammed Rafi.
It's clear to see that the AI rendition of “Blockbuster” with Raffi's vocals has become a hot topic on the internet. Even the producer of the song from Coke Studios, Zulfiqar Jabbar Khan aka Xulfi, responded to it.
Sharma has performed a retro-style rendition of “Blockbuster,” in which singer Aditya Karwai's vocals have been “transformed into Rafi Sahab's voice using AI.”

Sulfi, who was deeply moved after watching Sharma's video, said, “I never imagined that I would hear Mohammed Rafi singing the melody and lyrics that we wrote. It's truly magical. You are all magical.”
Schulfi expressed his appreciation for the reproduction, calling it “an incredible piece of work,” adding, “listening to it like this is like a dream come true, something I've never seen before.”
