The music video stars Waqas Shahzad, Jawad Rana, Daheem Qaiser and Ember Khan Baloch. Rizwan-ul-Haq says: “As a society the least we could do is to treat each other with politeness; kindness is infectious, I want to see a tolerant society I leave behind for my future generations; I hope Ghussay Vich will play its part”

Bilal Ashraf says: “Men have built far too many walls and not many bridges, I sincerely hope after watching our music video of Ghussay Vich; the audience will think twice before picking up arguments with their fellow human beings over petty things.
