New Delhi [India], June 4: Who can deny the fact that music has the power to heal? It has the power to unite and lift people out of the lowest lows in life. The sudden, unexpected and unprecedented second wave of COVID has hit us all with a vengeance that has no parallel in living memory.

With that in mind, JK White Cement’s latest initiative #MitJayengiDooriyaan dedicates a musical tribute to the indomitable spirit of humanity with UMMEED – a song of hope, sung by the superstar singer Shaan. The soulful, melodious song with deeply inspiring lyrics comes to you through a video wherein the JK Cement family, in chorus with Shaan, encourages you to join them in invoking the spirit of hope and solidarity.

‘Ayegi phir se subah

Dhal jayengi aandhiyan

Mit jayengi dooriyaan…’
