Arshdeep Singh’s Diwali post has a Pakistani connection

Hyderabad: Looks like the ‘Alfaaz’ fever has reached Indian cricketer Arshdeep Singh too! The Pakistani romantic track, which has been winning hearts across borders and dominating music charts, has now found its way into the Indian pacer’s Diwali celebrations. Arshdeep’s latest Instagram post with his girlfriend, actor and model Samreen Kaur, has caught fans’ attention for an interesting reason.

The couple celebrated Diwali together, with Arshdeep sharing a lovely photograph with Samreen on Instagram on Sunday (November 8). “A very happy Diwali to you all, from us,” he wrote alongside the picture.

However, it was the song accompanying the photograph that grabbed attention. Arshdeep chose ‘Alfaaz’, the popular Pakistani romantic track by Hamza Malik and Zain Zohaib, as the background music for his post.

Released in July 2026, the song has become a massive hit in India and Pakistan, proving once again that music knows no boundaries. It topped Spotify’s daily charts in both countries and even entered the platform’s Global Top 50, reaching No. 39 in October.

Arshdeep Singh and Samreen Kaur’s relationship

Arshdeep and Samreen made their relationship public in July this year, when the cricketer shared pictures with the actor and model on Instagram with the caption, “My Person”.

Their relationship has since attracted considerable attention from fans. Just days before Diwali, Arshdeep also dedicated his unique wicket celebration during the first ODI against New Zealand to Samreen.

Explaining the celebration after picking up four wickets, the Indian pacer said, “That’s for my girlfriend. We do these dance steps when we’re out walking or something like that.”

Arshdeep recently came out in support of Samreen following online criticism, urging people to respect their personal lives.
