Dekh Magar Pyaar Say, a rom-com starring Humaima Malick and Sikander Rizvi, written by Karachi You're Killing Me author Saba Imtiaz and directed by Asad-ul-Haq, will be one of this summer's film releases, and we now have one more reason to watch the film: the very soulful Abbas Ali Khan is composing the film's score.

In an Instagram post, Khan said that he had seen the film's rough cut, which has him impressed:

Known equally well for evocative pop tunes like 'Sun Re' and his Sufi-inspired last album 'Tamam Alam Mast', Khan was also the man behind the scores of Jalaibee, Pawnay 14 August and Sawa 14 August, and has also composed some music for upcoming film, Kaptaan.

So we can't wait to see what he has up his sleeve for Dekh Magar Pyaar Say! The film is slated for an August 2015 release.
