One Direction alum Zayn Malik has teamed up with Pakistani trio AUR on a remake of their 2023 No. 1 hit single “Tu Hai Kahan”. 

The song was re-released Friday with additional Hindi-language vocals on the ballad’s chorus from Malik.

“I was incredibly humbled when AUR reached out and asked me to collaborate on their song ‘Tu Hai Kahan,' I love the song and have brought some of myself to it, I hope people love what we’ve done,” Malik said in a statement about the song.

The new version of the song rolled up hundreds of millions of streams and reached No. 1 on Spotify in India, Pakistan, and the Global Viral charts. It was accompanied by a fresh video that juxtaposes images of AUR in the studio with Malik separately recording his vocals alone in a booth.

“We are super excited for this collaboration as it shows that music has no boundaries,” said group members Ahad, Usama, and Raffey. 

“‘Tu hai kahan’ is such a special song to us, and it’s hard to describe how amazed we were when we first heard ZAYN’s voice on the track. We’re taking Pakistani music global, and we can’t wait for the world to vibe to our music.”

The release is a joint effort between U.S.-based indie D36 & Sony Music Entertainment, Middle East. 

It represents Zayn’s first new music since his single, “Love Like This,” released last summer; the singer’s most recent album was 2021’s "Nobody Is Listening".
