This Eid, Chahat Fateh Ali Khan's debut film "Sabaq" is scheduled for release

Internet sensation Chahat Fateh Ali Khan just revealed his upcoming movie Sabaq, making fans very excited. Using the platform X, which was formerly known as Twitter, Khan posted the trailer for the movie along with the statement, “My first film, Sabaq, releasing on Eid Mubarak day, InshaAllah,” to his followers.

The comedy Sabaq, which is helmed by Faraz Ahmed, is expected to explore themes of second marriages and the world of social media influencers. Khan looks iconic in the teaser, which went viral on the internet very fast. Watchers are treated to sequences in which Khan plays himself, using his phone to record his trademark short videos. Delivering his trademark catchphrase, “King of hearts, Chahat Fateh Ali Khan, all the way from London,” the singer-influencer stays true to form.

The movie offers a lighthearted perspective on current social issues by fusing Khan’s distinct personality with a plot that captures the complexities and humorous aspects of contemporary relationships and internet celebrity. Because of the genuineness and charm that Khan’s portrayal of himself brings to the project, Sabaq is eagerly awaited by both comedy fans and Khan’s devotees.

With his cinematic debut, Khan has embarked on a new chapter in his career, and Sabaq is ready to delight and amuse viewers this holiday season. The British-Pakistani sensation, best known for his viral singing videos, took a surprising turn earlier in December when he entered the political sphere.

Khan formally filed his nomination papers for a seat in the National Assembly (NA), choosing to run as an independent. With his nomination papers in hand, Khan—real name Kashif Rana—announced on X that he is running for the NA- 128 seat in Lahore. This development gives the singer’s complex public persona an additional dimension. Known by many as “Chahat Fateh Ali Khan,” he rose to prominence as an internet sensation through his unique singing style, winning over millions of netizens.

Before becoming well-known in the music and political spheres, Khan played first-class cricket for Pakistan. He played two first-class matches for the Lahore team during the Quaid-e-Azam trophy season of 1983–1984, scoring 16 runs in three innings.
