The world is getting back to normal gradually as most people believe that the pandemic is over. Masks, sanitizers are no longer in use in public spaces and social distancing is almost unnoticeable. However, the pandemic is far from over as a new variant of Omicron was recently detected in Pakistan and NCOC geared up to handle the situation. In connection, the US Embassy Islamabad partnered with Sarmad Khoosat to release a Covid-19 themed song to promote vaccinations and booster shots.
Produced by Khoosat Films, Manzil has been sung by the renowned star Atif Aslam and the new singing sensation Shae Gill of Pasoori fame. The lyrics of the song are written by Mohammed Hanif while Shamsher Rana, Varqa Faraid, Nimra Gilani, and Ali Hamdani are producers and composers.

The music video, that is set to release on May 14, stars Sarwat Gilani. She is seen as a school teacher and a play is being put together by students based on Covid-19. From what one can hear in the short clips, Manzil appears to be an motivating tune for those who are not aware that Covid is far from over and prevention is the only solution.
