Yasser, who is known for superhit tracks like Naino Ne Baandhi (Gold), Mainu Jogi Hona & Pallo Latke (Shaadi Mein Zaroor Aana), has crooned the soulful Rang Dariya in 'Chehre'. In fact, his latest track 'Dil Ko Karaar Aya' featuring Sidharth Shukla and Neha Sharma has crossed 100 million views on YouTube.
Yasser is elated that Rang Dariya, a romantic number, composed by Gourav Dasgupta, has been picturized on Emraan Hashmi and Krystle D'Souza. "Of course, I am super excited. Chehre features some of the biggest stars of Bollywood including Mr Amitabh Bachchan, Emraan Hashmi, Krystle D'Souza and Annu Kapoor. It features a huge ensemble cast and to sing for a project with such legendary actors, is a huge deal for me. It feels surreal. It feels like a dream come true," said the Mumbai-born singer.

In fact, Yasser always wanted to sing for Emraan Hashmi. And he has his reasons ready. "Rang Dariya is a romantic song and features Emraan Hashmi, who is known for his blockbusters romantic tracks," said Yasser, who sung the runaway hit 'Dil Ko Karaar Aya' with Neha Kakkar. Ask Yasser, the USP of Rang Dariya and he said, "It's Emraan Hashmi and my voice. I am not bragging. The audiences seem to love the combination. Farhan Menon has beautifully penned the lyrics and Gourav has composed it really well."
He is less than five years old in the music industry but has worked with the biggest stars and music directors. Ask him about his journey so far in the Bollywood music industry and he said, "It's been great journey. I have met some good and bad people on the way. But that's life. It has helped me to shape up my career in a way that's unpredictable." The 31-year-old Bollywood singer is proud of his work so far. "I am proud when I look back at the kind of work I have done in these few years, especially the quality of work. I am looking forward to the coming years. I am experimenting a lot with my music. I am planning to feature in a full-fledged music video soon," he said.
When asked about his upcoming projects, Yasser prefers to remain tight-lipped. However, he did spill the beans that in the coming months, he will be seen in some of the biggest projects featuring some of the "huge stars of Bollywood." "I will also release some singles. Some will feature me and some not," Yasser smiled.
