As parents, living in the US, we have taught Urdu to our 3 year old. He doesn't understand English so far and we are just fine with it. I have been looking for Urdu content for children for a long time, be it books or any audio visual content, with little luck. Gluco songs are awesome and more such content is required. What amazes me is that in Pakistan middle class people have started talking to their children in English only(I noticed this on my visit to Karachi) Children there too are losing their language, hence their 'identity'. I am happy to hear that someone else is paying attention to this dearth of quality content as well. Sorry to say that we as a nation are so ashamed of all the good things we had and are losing all of them, one by one. We need to reconnect with our roots and treasure the richness of our culture. Hoping, praying, and waiting for great things to happen in this area soon!

[@JANNATTIII]

I used to feel the same But not now. Urdu has become a crime Urdu speaker is the in trouble 24/7 365 days a year because of his language Unfortunately

[@hizbullahriaz4823]

“English complex” became part of our society when britishers left Pakistan, it is a shared trauma of our society thats why we should feel empathetic about this. As for as speaking english in many big cities of Pakistan is concerned, It has become a survival technique. Many good schools, which opensopportunities to kids requires their students to be well spoken. Especially in English, because our curriculum is based on it. Its fine if someone chooses English to be known by their kids, but yes they should be more comfortable to their own languages. We have kids in my home, who speaks English as well as urdu nd sindhi because we voluntarily exposed them to these all languages. Fun fact, youngest in our home is 2 yrs.

[@muhammadifham9404]

The Urdu he used in the children rhyme the way he speak the history he has the successful career he has.....is basically the epitome of a Legend these people are not born twice.... Strings individually are as strong as they were knotted together

I started loving Pakistani songs because of this Band *Strings Forever* my favourite songs are - Durr, Sar ki yeh Pahar, yeh hai Meri Kahani, Aanjane, Mera Bichra Yaar, Koi aane wala hai, Akhri Alvida, Ab khud Kuch Karna padega humko (with Atif Aslam) etc.

[@URNS]

There’s a lot of stuff that is not discussed in this podcast which audience want to know. For example, role of Anwer Maqsood in Strings and making music of videos of their songs, etc. Maybe a part 2? Public k bahud israar per….”once more” :)

[@anthonymassey8276]

Thanks for bringing back so many Lost memories i was born and breed abroad and I was in high school when these guys started singing, their music was which connected us to pakistan. we had recorded our favorite songs on a loop on a cassette and would listen to them over and over in my friend's Adeel's car. Love you bro, keep it up dude!!!👏 stay blessed.

Two different personality in one house, Anwar Maqsood the great legend known by his speech and entertaining quality, while Bilal looks shy in public but known for his music, love them both tons of prayers, thanks Junaid for the lovely podcast. Kabhi Vancouver ao tu let's meet up

[@hitesh_blues2353]

I saw Strings in 2011 during their concert at BITS Hyderabad campus, India. I still have Bilal's Fender medium guitar pick and autographs from Faisal, Bilal, Adil, Shakir, Aahad and Haider on Koi Aanay Wala Hai promo flyer. Strings were amazing that evening. The band was kind to allow some of us to meet with them and take pictures. I remember Adil let some of us guitar nerds to have a peek at his guitar and gear. Thank you Strings for giving a beautiful childhood to 90s generation. The highlight of the show for me was Dhani and Koi Aanay Wala Hai 🥰

[@vincentbrk]

24:22 - You also changed our lives in India with such unique sounds and missing indie pop. You opened up our world for other talented Pakistani artists as well.

[@s.mrizwan-ul-hassan6501]

Bilal Maqsood mentioning the local train is the highlight of interview 💖

Hello Bilal. I'm from Hyderabad and i'd like to thank you so much and I'm very humbled that you answered in this session regarding how you did the baby rhymes - My twin sons are 1 yr old MA and they love all your rhymes, special Khargosh & Pinjre main chiriya. I also play guitar & sing chiriya for them whenever there's no electricity. 😂 My wife & I have to Thank you very very much for giving our children these beautiful rhymes in Urdu. They love it.

I remember a concert of strings, me with my cousins were standing at backstage where guard was not letting anyone go near to the band. Faisal said to guard, bacho ko anay do. He received us with arms with open. Great person and a musician.

[@huaweiuser1236]

Strings were among those pop bands in Pakistan in early 90's who set base of pure pop music in the country. Unfortunately strings (Faisal Kapadia and Bilal Masood) are no more together but the memories they left for people like me (90's kid) will remain in our minds forever. Beat of luck Bilal Masood for rest of your life.

[@TaimoorTahir]

Played Snooker with strings back in 2003 when they came to our colony for a concert. Hai Koi Hum Jaisa was at its peak at that time.

[@sab-ali]

I can't relate more with anything more than how you guys were discussing the music of the 90s and early 2000s. Bilal maqsood was my first crush. The interview was filled with such cute stories. Just luved it! And I would like to confess that I too used to think that it was Sarh kiyee bahaar when I was little. And i have another confession that i am one of those people who criticised Strings coke studio. I have a reason. Although a few extremely stunning songs came out of those seasons, but most of the songs lacked coherence and connection. And the sound mixing was too noisy. But Strings is our U2. Just luv them.

[@asadnezam]

One of the Finest Podcasts Junaid Bhai !! Bilal Maqsood what soft spoken kind hearted person you are. Your kid's rhymes are really phenomenal !! Thank You Sir !!

[@kasturchakraborty]

Strings was a revolution in India during the 90’s. I still remember all the songs in the Cassette order from the Duur album. Khirki is the most underrated song from the Duur album.

[@sushreyomisra3261]

Indeed, Khirki is massively underrated. Glad to see someone point it out 🙂

@@sushreyomisra3261 I am happy to finally see someone like Khirki.

Aj aapne strings (bilai maqsood) ko laya, kasam khuda ki mera school life strings ke gaano se guzarre hue din yaad aa gaya. im from kolkata India and i wont forget the first time i heard strings live in Nicco Park during 2003 (mera class 3 hoga). i am still a big fan of strings to this day, In those days the park st music world use to house cassettes of strings and sab ekdin ke andar khatam ho jaate the.

I am an Afghan and I have lived in Pakistan for ages before getting back to Afghanistan and Europe and finally now in the US. Urdu language is such a sweet language and when Sar ki hay ye Pahaar was released, I even didn’t understand the lyrics but it hit me so deeply. I was perhaps in first or 2nd class when I listened to the song. Now at 36, Sir k he ye pahaar is still my all time favorite. The interview reminded me a very golden time of Pakistani music especially the Pop ones. Thanks for this amazing interview and getting me back to my roots that I have forgotten in the hustle and bustle of life

[@cutetube.]

Glad to hear that some Afghani brothers still love our country and language. 😊

Dear Junaid, it was an awesome Podcast, the top one so far. Bilal Maqsood is amazing so are Strings. The band of 4 later 2 was the reason I started to listen pop. There first one which i saw was Dunia walo dekh lo on TV. I was amazed keh ye hamara music, hamare show or hamare boys hain. So proud of them. In this podcast my favorite part where Bilal talked about kid’s rhymes project and how creative he was to understand and manage everything from a child’s point of view. Also, not using racial related lyrics. I also want to add that kids do understand them very well. Ke agar hum chiria ko qaid kare ge to her kids will die hungry. Believe me, it’s a perfect age to understand things rather than in their 20s. All i can say, hats off to you for arranging this Podcast and to Bilal to show up and talk/explain. I always wanted to know Strings and their past. Hereby, I’d like to request Bilal and Faisal to re-release their at least first two albums in their original versions (not a remake) in digital audio. I’d love to buy them. I have their MCs. Thanks Junaid, Bilal and amazing Strings to give such a beautiful music as well as videos to Pakistan. You guys are assets.
