Realistically speaking, this may have been the most difficult stage in the entire process of the Final Music Video. Since we had no budget to hire any Actors or Actresses, everyone that we had asked to become part of our video kept on rejecting us, also because of the fact that many of the models that we were recruiting were from our own school, most of them had exams or transport issues making it nearly impossible for us to recruit any model within the given time. Since our music video concept was also complicated to understand no one was willing to make such an effort and that too for free. Majority of the people we asked would at times agree to be part of our shoot but end up ditching us last minute or not receive our any calls or text messages. However, though it was a very difficult process this was also at the same time my favourite task as it gave me an opportunity to make friends, and talk to various people and connect with them socially. Down below is a flyer that Emaan and I created in order to recruit a model in our school.

Appearance: Sharp and fierce dark black hair colour.

Background: The character has developed an obsession/delusion over the female lead. He describes it as 'love at first sight', when in reality its actually 'obsession at first sight'. The Male lead begins his obsession by stalking her, following her, and becomes a surveillance camera tracking her every move. His delusions take over his body and its almost as if he's blind over the girl. She is all that he see's.
After careful consideration my partner Emaan I decided to choose Fahad Malik as our Male lead as he seemed to have the skills and confidence to do this role perfectly.Â
