Ko Ko Korina: Netizens are going crazy over Momina-Mazari Twitter spat
The classic number was part of 1966 movie Armaans soundtrack.
(Web Desk) – The Twitter spat between acclaimed 26-year-old singer Momina Mustehsan and federal minister for human rights Shireen Mazari is getting ugly and netizens are loving every bit of it.
It all started when Coke Studio aired rendition of 60s iconic song ‘Ko Ko Korina’, a song loved by millions of Pakistanis. Soon after its release, the remake became viral on social media but for all the negative reasons.

And federal minister for human rights Shireen Mazari joined Twittaris to condemn the ‘massacre’ and inquired how Coke Studio could allow it. However, Momina—who rose to fame with Afreen Afreen across South Asia—did not take minister’s comment lightly. She also took to popular micro-blogging website Twitter to submit reply. And from here, erupted an extended fumed Twitter thread.

Originally sung by pop-singer Ahmed Rushdi, the classic number was part of 1966 movie Armaan’s soundtrack and was danced to by actor Wahid Murad. Known as Pakistan’s first pop-song, it rules hearts even 50 years after its release.
