The song premiered on Apple Music 1’s New Music Daily Radio Show with Zane Lowe featuring Karan Aujla and Ryan Tedder.

Aujla has just extended his global recording deal with Warner Music Canada and Warner Music India.

Karan Aujla says “Working with OneRepublic has been a dream of mine for years, so this collaboration is a big deal. It’s exciting to finally share this news, and I know fans are going to love the song. And returning to Warner to release this music feels like coming home. We made my last album the biggest of my career, and I’m ready to make my return even bigger with more surprises in store.”

Ryan Tedder, frontman of OneRepublic says: “Ever since our first show in India with OneRepublic, I have been obsessed with not only the culture and the people and the food, but the music itself and I have been looking for the right opportunity to collaborate with local artists and dive into the Hindi and Punjabi musical landscape. I could not be more excited about this song and our work with Karan and I hope this leads to many more trips to India.”

Kristen Burke, President, Warner Music Canada adds: “Karan is a generational artist whose music has broken down borders, both culturally and geographically. We are so excited to be working with him on this next chapter to expand his impact on music and culture globally. Having OneRepublic, one of the biggest bands globally over the last two decades as a collaborator on the track brings everything to the next level. I can’t wait for fans of both artists to hear the track.”

Of the new music, Jay Mehta, Managing Director, Warner Music India & SAARC adds: “Karan is an artist who constantly evolves, pushing the limits of what Punjabi and global music can achieve. ‘Tell Me’ is a brilliant example of his ambition – teaming up with OneRepublic and Ikky to craft something truly special. With Karan’s renewed partnership with Warner Music, we are dedicated to amplifying his voice on the world stage. There’s so much more to come, and we can’t wait for the world to hear what’s next.”

Karan Aujla was the most streamed Punjabi artist on Spotify globally in 2024. His most recent album Making Memories captured global attention, while generating over 2 billion streams, a milestone that was celebrated while Karan was on a sold-out world tour which attracted an audience of more than 500,000 people.

His song “Tauba Tauba” launched Karan into Bollywood as he teamed up with actor Vicky Kaushal for the film Bad Newz. The track quickly became one of the biggest songs in India in 2024. In addition to his breakout Bollywood moment, Karan also took home the International Trendsetter Award at the International India Film Academy Awards. These successes follow an incredible year of firsts, including Karan becoming the first South Asian artist to win the TikTok JUNO Fan Choice award at the 2024 JUNO Awards, where he also delivered his first televised performance. Karan’s momentum continues into 2025 with three JUNO Award nominations, including Single of the Year for “Winning Speech.”

South Asian music, particularly of Punjabi origin, has seen enormous global growth in recent years, transcending cultural boundaries and driving a massive increase in consumption across streaming platforms. South Asian artists have been performing at major international music festivals, topping global charts, and amassing billions of streams across various platforms. This trend represents a significant shift in the global music landscape, highlighting the growing influence and popularity of South Asian music worldwide.

Miznon, the globally celebrated fast-casual concept by celebrity, Michelin starred Chef Eyal Shani, will open its newest, highly anticipated Toronto location on Tuesday, February 4, 2025 in Union Station’s vibrant ‘Foodie Aisle.’ Launching on the second anniversary of its wildly popular first in Canada spot in Yorkville, Miznon Union is bringing its bold, innovative flavours and inventive Mediterranean fare to Canada’s busiest transport hub in spectacular style.

To mark this milestone, Miznon Union is unveiling three exclusive, limited-edition pitas, never enjoyed before in North America, with a fashionable culinary “drop,” giving food lovers an exclusive, time-limited taste of Miznon’s creative brilliance. Each pita will roll out sequentially over the first three weeks, beginning with the Adom Pita combining hanger steak, cooked to a perfect medium-rare, sliced and tossed with tomato, onion, scallions and chili pepper, grilled to order, and served in a pita with tahini and Miznon’s spicy green sauce. Fans of Miznon’s exceptional vegetarian fare will not be left out as they too can enjoy The Adom Veggie, offering all of the Adom’s goodness without the meat. The Adom pita will be available for one week only with additional exclusive pitas announced at the start of each of the next two weeks. Guests are invited to try them before they roll in and out as quickly as the trains at Union Station.

In addition to its signature pitas, Miznon Union offers a convenient grab-and-go counter featuring fresh salads, daily-prepped portions of “The Best Hummus You Will Ever Eat,” and the same vibrant energy that has made its Yorkville and Castlefield locations fan favourites.

Founded by celebrity Chef Eyal Shani, the visionary behind a global portfolio of acclaimed restaurants such as HaSalon, Port Sa’id, and the Michelin-starred Shmoné in New York City, Miznon Union offers a vibrant addition to Toronto’s culinary scene. Miznon Union is in the company of a diverse selection of market-style cuisine from some of the city’s top chefs. Conveniently located right next to the entrance to Scotiabank Arena, it’s the perfect spot for commuters on the go, sports fans cheering on the Leafs, Raptors, or Blue Jays, and concertgoers heading to Scotiabank Arena or the nearby Rogers Centre. It’s also an ideal choice for anyone exploring Toronto’s cultural attractions or seeking a high-quality, made-to-order meal during the workday. Whether you’re looking for a quick grab-and-go option or a satisfying sit-down experience, Miznon delivers on every front.

“We’re incredibly grateful for the opportunity to share the magic of Miznon and our very special food with so many people who pass through Union Station every day,” said Eli Benchetrit, President of Miznon Canada. “We know how passionate Torontonians are about Miznon, and we hope that by making it even more accessible, they’ll continue to embrace the vibrant flavours and energy we’re known for. Of course, we’ll keep it exciting by offering exclusive pita drops that can only be enjoyed here, making every visit to Miznon a one-of-a-kind experience.”

Miznon is wild Mediterranean street food with pitas and plates infused with Chef Shani’s rebellious spirit and passion for pure ingredients. The creative dishes are lovingly prepared fresh daily with what is in season and produced locally, and the result is ‘Miznon Magic’.

Miznon Union offers 2470 square feet of space with family style seating for up to 55 people and, in addition to tables, includes casual seating for individual dining and guests on the go. Miznon Union offers electronic ordering stations for self-service and, above the bar are Miznon’s signature overhead racks, both functional and aesthetically interesting, used to openly store vegetables such as sweet potatoes and whole cauliflowers alongside sage (burned daily for positive energy). In addition, produce such as tomatoes and chilies are incorporated holistically into the décor, reminding us of the artistry and beauty in fresh produce.

Famed worldwide for its whole roasted cauliflower, and an array of inventive pita sandwiches, Miznon’s Folded Cheese Burger was originally crafted for its first New York City location and earned the title of Best Burger in New York City by Time Out. In every city, Miznon infuses local flavours into its menu, creating a signature pita that reflects the spirit of the city and its culinary culture. Toronto’s signature creation, the Smoked Maple Steak Pita, fondly nicknamed “Toronto Smoke”, is exclusive to Miznon Toronto and will be available on the Miznon Union Station menu. This masterpiece features smoked brisket drizzled with rich Ontario golden maple syrup, topped with garlic aioli, mustard, and pickles, capturing the essence of both the city and Canada as a whole.

Since opening its first Canadian location in Toronto’s Yorkville neighbourhood at 1235 Bay St. in February 2023, Toronto diners have been enjoying the popular signature pitas such as the Minute Steak, Lavan, Falafel Burger, Wild Mushrooms, Lamb Kebab, and the Fish-n-Chips, ranked number one on Streets of Toronto’s list of Best Sandwiches in the city.

Other favourites include the unique Run Over Potato (a flattened baked potato festooned with sour cream, garlic, dill, and scallions), Bag of Green Beans (green beans with a perfume of lemon, salt, and olive oil) and of course the item that became a culinary cult phenomenon, The Original Whole Roasted Baby Cauliflower, named by Food & Wine Magazine as one of their 40 Best. Exclusive to the Miznon North America menu is the Bag of Golden Meat – overnight brisket and onions seared on a hot skillet with aioli, and the Candy Steak pita, charred overnight brisket, aioli, mustard, pickles, tomato, and red onion.

The Toronto locations are also the very first Miznons in the world to serve several Halal-certified meats, including lamb and chicken. With quality, freshness, and seasonality at the forefront of the brand, Miznon grinds all meats daily, as well as the chickpeas, for their signature “best hummus that you will ever eat!” The fluffy, perfect Miznon pita is proprietary from one of the Middle East’s oldest pita bakeries, and the tahini, olive oil, and salt are all imported.

Miznon Union marks the 43rd restaurant by Chef Eyal Shani to open worldwide, with 21 Miznon locations globally, 9 of which are in North America, including New York, Las Vegas, Dallas, and Toronto. The first Miznon opened in Tel Aviv in 2011 before expanding to Paris, Vienna, Melbourne, the UK and Singapore.

So thrilled to experience MIZNON UNION STATION!

About Miznon

In 2011, the first Miznon opened in Tel Aviv and has since expanded to Paris, Vienna, Melbourne, and Singapore, and in 2018, the first US Miznon opened in Chelsea Market, New York City. In 2023, the brand expanded North to Canada, opening its first location in Toronto. Miznon uses fresh and seasonally inspired ingredients to create a new kind of Mediterranean street food. The vision is to take the flavor of each city and translate it into a pita. We take the energy, the groove, the desires, the limitations, the beauty, and the food and express it all in one pita.

About Eyal Shani

Chef Eyal Shani was born in Jerusalem in 1959. His culinary passion was first instilled in him by his grandfather, an agronomist, and a dedicated vegan, who exposed him to local markets, fields, and vineyards from a young age.

In 1989, he opened his first restaurant “Oceanus” in his hometown of Jerusalem. There, he developed a unique culinary language based on regional Mediterranean products: olive oil, fish, tahini, fresh seasonal vegetables, and of course, the tomato.

Since opening his fine dining restaurant HaSalon in Tel Aviv, Shani is now the inspiration and the leading chef of 43 highly successful restaurants worldwide. His restaurants include Port Sa’id, Romano, Miznon, North Abraxas, HaSalon, Malka and more in Tel Aviv as well as Miznon locations in Vienna, Paris, London, Melbourne, Singapore, New York, Dallas, and Las Vegas, and HaSalon, the Michelin nominated Shmoné, Naked Tomato, Port Sa’id and North Miznon, all in New York City, and the upcoming opening of Malka in Brooklyn.

Shani is considered one of the leading figures in the Israeli culinary scene, starring in the TV series “Food for Thought” and appearing on the panel of judges during the past six seasons of Israeli “Master Chef.” Follow @eyaltomato

Today, Apple Original Films announced the groundbreaking new documentary event “Bono: Stories of Surrender,” a lyrical, bold visual exploration of Bono’s one-man show by the same name, to premiere globally on Friday, May 30, 2025 on Apple TV+. Based on his celebrated memoir “Surrender: 40 Songs, One Story,” and the accompanying book/theatre tour, the film hails from RadicalMedia and Plan B Entertainment, with award-winning filmmaker Andrew Dominik (“The Assassination of Jesse James,” “Blonde”) directing.

“Bono: Stories of Surrender” is a vivid reimagining of Bono’s critically-acclaimed one-man stage show, “Stories of Surrender: An Evening of Words, Music and Some Mischief…,” as he pulls back the curtain on a remarkable life and the family, friends, and faith that have challenged and sustained him, revealing personal stories about his journey as a son, father, husband, activist and rockstar. Along with never-before-seen, exclusive footage from the Beacon Theatre shows, the film features Bono performing many of the iconic U2 songs that have shaped his life and legacy.

Also set to premiere on May 30, 2025 on Apple Vision Pro, “Bono: Stories of Surrender (Immersive)” will be the first feature-length film available in Apple Immersive Video, a remarkable media format recorded in 8K with Spatial Audio to produce a 180-degree video that places viewers onstage with Bono and in the centre of his story. With this special edition of the film available only on Vision Pro, viewers will feel completely immersed in the music and storytelling of Surrender. Releasing an immersive version of the film for Vision Pro alongside its debut on Apple TV+ is the latest example of Bono’s enduring commitment to innovation. Since U2’s earliest days, Bono and the band have consistently pushed boundaries and embraced new technologies to forge deeper and unexpected connections with their audience.

Academy Award and Emmy Award-winning RadicalMedia’s Jon Kamen and Dave Sirulnick (“Summer of Soul,” “Hamilton,” “David Byrne’s American Utopia”) produce alongside Academy Award-winning Plan B Entertainment’s Brad Pitt, Dede Gardner and Jeremy Kleiner (upcoming “F1,” “Moonlight,” “12 Years a Slave”). Bono executive produces with Jennifer Pitcher (“Kiss The Future”) and Kelly McNamara (“V-U2 an Immersive Concert Film at Sphere Las Vegas”).

“Bono: Stories of Surrender,” an abridged and updated paperback edition of Bono’s bestselling memoir, will be released concurrently with the documentary film. Introspective, intimate and irreverent in equal measure, this version has been refined to mirror the arc of his one-man show and features a film tie-in book cover and new introduction by the author.

Born Paul David Hewson, Bono has been headlining stadiums around the world with U2 for more than four decades. The band has sold over 175 million records and won 22 Grammys. A longtime activist in the fight against AIDS and extreme poverty, Bono is also the co-founder of ONE and (RED). For his music and activism, he has been awarded the Freedom of the City of Dublin, the US Presidential Medal of Freedom, France’s Legion of Honour and an honorary British knighthood.

“Bono: Stories of Surrender” joins the award-winning slate of Apple Original documentary films, including the recently announced untitled feature on legendary rock icons Fleetwood Mac; Academy Award winner Davis Guggenheim’s “STILL: A Michael J. Fox Movie,” which swept the Critics Choice Documentary Awards with five wins, alongside four Emmy Award wins; Emmy Award-nominated “Selena Gomez: My Mind & Me,” a uniquely raw and intimate documentary spanning her six-year journey into a new light; Emmy Award-nominated and PGA Award-winning “STEVE!
