Bilal Maqsood was once asked to be a part of Vital Signs

Pakistani band Strings’ guitarist/vocalist Bilal Maqsood revealed in a video that he was once asked by Rohail Hayatt to join Vital Signs in the 90s, but the irony is the offer only lasted for 15 seconds.

Bilal uploaded a video of him performing one of Vital Sign’s hit songs Tum Mil Gaye and shared this fun fact about the offer. Maqsood wrote,

“In 1998/99 Rohail asked me if I would like to join Vital Signs. I was sitting in his studio and right there he called Junaid [Jamshed] and told him that we should have Bilal in our band.” 

He went on to write,

” Junaid said – NO. Rohail put the phone down and said, sorry can’t happen. Yeah that was it. That offer came and went in 15 sec.”
