Sheher Sheher Ki Laila (translated from Hindi:- Laila: The Beloved of Cities) is a song written and composed by Hasnain Czar, which meta- phorically romanticizes Laila's beauty with different Indian Cities where Laila is somewhat a counterpart of Juliet from Shakespeare's Romeo-Juliet. Often in the Indian subcontinent, Laila is referred to a woman with absolute beauty, so incredible that the world admires her. In this music video, we will capture a well choregraphed rendition where Majnu (the counterpart of Romeo) tries to impress Laila by singing and dancing along this song for her meanwhile she playfully questions his love.
