Emirati singer Ahmad Bukhatir has decided to mark the blessing month of Ramadan with a new video clip entitled ‘Ramadan 2018’. The new Nasheed (song) posted on Bukhatir Youtube channel has so far been watched by about 300,000 viewers.

Bukhatir told Khaleej Times that he was over-thrilled to come up with the new video to mark and celebrate the holy month.

The lyrics of the Nasheed were written by famous poet Omar Al Sakaf. The songs were composed by Bukhatir, while the sound engineerin­g was administer­ed by Hossam Saleh. “The Nasheed was filmed in a humanitari­an, charitable theme in accordance with my permanent message in all my works and activities.”

The artistic work has been done in cooperatio­n with director Adbul Rahman Kendo under the management and supervisio­n of Fadi Tolbi, he explained.

Bukhatir revealed that he is preparing a new work for children in conformity.

“This work will be a captivatin­g surprise to everyone,” he said. “It is a new challenge for me.”
