Is this ripped from something
Bulgarian Pop folk is usually ripped from either greek/turkish/ or arabic but the intro to this song is pretty good. Wanted to know if anyone knows if
this is the original melody or not.. Nahawand if I am not mistaken?

Sounds to me like a very common harmonic minor key progression, the bouzouki intro just follows those chord changes using a catchy little down-up
pattern, and then they use a sampled "Middle Eastern String Section" patch to repeat the theme, it has that Arabic sound (to go with the lettering
and costumes), so you can call it Nahawand if you want, then that theme turns into the melody. I don't think it's any more specific than that. Call it
original, but it's a minor key progression we've all heard many times, Russian pop is full of it.
