Haider Hashimi Officially Leaves Aaroh

December 4, 2009

Haider HashimiSince the release of Haider’s first solo single “Nahin“, there had been rumors of Haider Hashimi quitting the band. Haider joined Aaroh in 2004 when he replaced Nabeel Nihal Chishti after Aaroh’s first breakup. Haider has been the key behind Aaroh’s compositions and the Raag Neela era belongs to him. The news of Haider leaving the band was first confirmed when Haider responded to one of his fans with these words on his official Facebook group

This is not a project. I plan on launching my own music.

When we asked Haider about the details, he told us that he just moved on and didn’t mention any band conflicts. He said

Yes I have left. I just felt its time to move on

We haven’t been able to get words from anyone from the Aaroh yet. If we get to hear anything, we will keep you posted. We wish luck to both Haider and Aaroh for the future projects
