PAKISTAN - HOT PASHTO CLASSIC SONG - 'Wayeye Ra Pa Ranjo' - FILM: 'DA ORBAL SHPA'
{Wait Up To 10 Seconds - Slow Buffering}
'WAYEYE RA PA RANJO' is a 1990s cinema orchestral version of a traditional Pashto folk song. It is an interesting example for International Audiences to hear as an example of effective ORCHESTRATION that detracts from the feature of REPETITION and narrow TESSITURA [size of range of melody note span]. These features are appreciated by local audiences of Pushto Music but listeners from outside of the Pathan regions tend to find these features disengaging. Thus, selecting 'Wayaye Ra Pa Ranjo' a variety of listeners may hopefully find a more inviting ORCHESTRAL window to look into Pushto Media which more REPETITIVE songs may have dissuaded them to do.
VISUAL AESTHETICS
In purely one opinion, the VISUALS and AESTHETICS of the picturisation do totally spoil this song. The melody is so beautifully ORCHESTRATED and performed but the visual 'VULGARITY', typical of Pashto Cinema of the 1990s, does not match the musical brilliance....
"Pashto Films are a sort of 'mercy' on men who may never get married, see a woman's body or see a woman dance..." This is a candid comment from a Pushto director interviewed on 'Wild Scenes' about Pushto Cinema in Pakistan:

The Cinema in Pakistan seemed to go from a secular pastime up to the 1970s to, "something unwholesome to work in or watch" from the 1980s onwards. It was here that 'THE VULGARITY' took root proper in Punjabi and Pushto films. Suggestive moves had gradually moved onto Pakistan Screen from the early 70s with songs from 'Banrasi Thug' etc., but then became such 'bump and grind' that families could no longer attend film showings together for embarrassment.
The Conservative Pathan Cinema management was sold onto state governers and ministers who saw the financial potential for 'erotic' dance and acting. 'VUGARITY' became the hallmark of Pushto Cinema and was pushed through the censors by the local political figures who owned the films companies and cinemas. A few Pushto movie dancers/actresses were Pathan like Musarrat Shaheen [who is now standing for government] but in an ultra-conservative society, it is difficult and dangerous for ladies to work in the cinema, especially Pushto Media. So, the solution was to employ Punjabi actresses like Nazoo for example. However, the Pushto language barrier is a problem so there is a need for VOICE ACTRESSES [a native speaker of the language to record the spoken dialogue for a Punjabi actress to mime as if using her own voice].
