Strings may have become a thing of the past, but the band’s songs have long been immortalised in memory. Former member Faisal Kapadia took to Instagram to celebrate the anniversary of the album Duur, which released in 2000 and marked the end of the band’s eight-year-long hiatus.<\/p>\n

“Today marks twenty-four years since Duur was released worldwide. It’s hard to believe how time flies – sometimes it feels like just yesterday when we were working on this album and all those music videos. The journey was truly unforgettable. Thank you for being a part of this amazing ride with us!” Kapadia wrote on Monday.<\/p>\n

The vocalist’s words took his fans on a nostalgic trip, reigniting old memories associated with the album and the eponymous song. “Great album cover and an even better song! Timeless!” remarked one user. “This album defined my childhood! Your music has been a part of my journey, and even though the band isn’t together, the legacy of Strings lives on. Thank you for the memories!” another wrote.<\/p>\n

After Strings disbanded in 2021, the duo comprising Kapadia and Bilal Maqsood branched out into solo careers. While Kapadia, who recently launched his solo album, is still rocking the stage, Maqsood has committed to puppeteering with his latest project Pakkay Dost.<\/p>\n

In an Instagram post shared in January, Maqsood harked back to his popstar days by playing the keyboard. “On Friday, a fan shared a song from our very first Strings album, and it brought back so many memories. Felt like revisiting it on my keyboard – here’s a casual rendition, straight from the heart, just like it was back then. How many of you remember this?” he wrote.<\/p>\n

The song, Main Ne Tujhe, was an offering from Duur. Safe to say, the short clip had the same effect on Strings fans that Kapadia’s post did. A user simply posed, “How can we not know this song by heart?”<\/p>\n
