The young singer has now cleared that the video of ‘Blue Butterfly’ is not meant for the Pakistani audience.
Talking to Galaxy Lollywood, Danyal Zafar said:
“The video is actually meant for a western audience, as I want to work on a couple of English albums and have a set-up in place in Los Angeles.”
He further added that the video is a non-linear expression of art and is aesthetically shot.
