British singer Zayn Malik’s floored fans as a song in his new album Nobody Is Listening touched his Pakistani roots.

The Dusk Till Dawn hit maker, who broke away from boyband One Direction five years ago, featured a song in his album called Tightrope.

He paid homage to his desi roots as it included qawwali-inspired tunes as well as some Urdu lyrics floating in the background.

As the song reached outro, the 28-year-old can be heard belting out some lyrics from Bollywood musician Mohammad Rafi's iconic 1960s song Chaudhvi Ka Chand.

Needless to say fans had to do a double take to make sure that their ears did not deceive them.
