"Bigg Boss 13" star Asim Riaz is probably one of the most prominent faces to have emerged from the reality show. Ever his season concluded, the actor-model has managed to stay in the headlines given his posts about drool-worthy fitness posts, his equation with co-contestant Himanshi Khurana and his music videos. He is all set to enthrall his fans once again with new music video featuring "Khuda Haafiz" actress Shivaleeka Oberoi.
Asim and Shivaleeka will be seen together in the music video of a love song titled "Saiyyonee" by Bollywood composer Gourov Dasgupta.
