Any one can give me the information about Atif Aslam.?

Question

The wibe site,any information etc.(he is a singer)

Answer 1

Born an ordinary kid attended High School at PAF College Lahore, where he played Cricket and became interested in music. He attended PICS (Punjab Institute of Computer Science) to do his Bachelors in Computer Science (BCs). It was at PICS Lahore that he met guitarist and talented, young composer (like himself), Gohar Mumtaz. The two became friends and started jamming together. This lead to performances at their college and at various restaurants eventually pushing the pair into finding a name for their subtly formed band, which they duly named "Jal" - which means Water - (the issue of which musician was truly responsible for the name “Jal” is still disputed).

Working together, the pair recorded the song Aadat (with the help of Salman Albert, amongst other established and accomplished Pakistani musicians). It became popular on a host of promotional Pakistani music websites. The song was also played on such Pakistani radio stations as FM100 and FM105. The music video for Aadat was shot one day in a warehouse in Karachi. On the base of this one song, “Jal” began their tour of Pakistan—such was the strength of “Aadat”. However, whilst on tour, personal problems led to a verbal bust-up resulting in an unannounced and indefinite hiatus, during which Atif launched his solo career.

Atif Aslam, after leaving Jal, released a new solo album, Jal Pari (ironically meaning "Mermaid") which was a big hit. The Songs Woh Lamhey, Dil Haarey and few others were smash hits on both Pakistani radio stations and Music Channels. As both the Jal, “Aadat”, and Atif’s album, Jalpari, shared certain tracks (such as “Aadat”, “Bheegi Raatein/Wo Lamhey”, “Ankhon se”) an unofficial war over rights began which resulted in both sides claiming to possess hard proof to support their respective claims (that, they alone owned the concerned songs). The hype this feud gave to both Atif and the new Jal was extraordinary and split the musical nation with the fans of each side backing their respective favourite.

Whilst the drama of lyrics & composition ownership was rolling on in Pakistan, Atif Aslam's soulful voice crossed the border over into India when Bollywood director Mahesh Bhatt called Atif Aslam to seek his consent to include "Woh Lamhey" in the soundtrack of his new motion picture, Zeher (2005). The song (especially the remix version) became a huge hit & dominated airplay on almost all major FM stations throughout India for a period of 6-8 months. This pattern of a slow playback song by Atif in the movie, supplemented by a remix version released for radio airplay was to become standard procedure with Atif’s songs on the Indian market.

Atif has continued to grow and is becoming a bollywood playback singer in great demand at such a young age, with very few OSTs to his name. He recorded a song for the movie Kalyug, entitled 'Juda Hokey Bhi' - a slight variation of the ever famous Aadat song. Like with “Wo Lamhey / Bheegi Yaadein”, a slow version became the theme for the movie and part of the official soundtrack, whilst a remixed version was released to hit the radio stations and desi clubs worldwide.

After recording for Kalyug, a Pakistani director in Hollywood contacted Atif and within very little time, Atif recorded three songs for that same director’s Hollywood movie, 'Man Push Cart' and was rewarded with a small cameo role in the movie itself!

All of a sudden, after a relatively quiet summer, Atif re-emerged in the subcontinent with a new track, “Tere Bin” (translation: [Without You]) for the Bollywood Movie, Bas Ek Pal. Yet again, the song was remixed and as expected it became popular in a very short amount of time. Once again, Atif’s voice is electrifying the airwaves on radio stations throughout the subcontinent.The song "Tere Bin" has become a sensational hit, going at number #1 on all Pakistani/Indian music sites.

In between the copyright war and media war with Gohar ( Jal ) and recording Bollywood songs, Atif had been touring the world and working on his new album.

Atif visited various countries in Asia, Europe & The Americas which include Pakistan, India, UAE, UK, Canada & America—taking his sound to the “pardesi” (expatriates of the subcontinent) worldwide. Atif’s new album has been entitled 'Hangami Halaat' and is due to be released in the summer of 2006.

Answer 4

Atif Aslam is a Pakistani musician. He was born in Wazirabad, Gujranwala and educated in Lahore and Rawalpindi.

Aslam started his High School in PAF College Lahore, where he played cricket and became interested in music. He paired with a guitarist named Gohar Mumtaz, and the two performed for their college and at restaurants, later calling themselves “JAL” which means water.

Working together, the pair recorded the song AAADAT. It became popular on different musical websites in Pakistan. The song was also played on such Pakistani radio stations as FM100 and FM105. The music video for AADAT was shot one day in a warehouse in Karachi. Due to personal problems in the band, Atif Aslam left Jal and became solo.

Atif Aslam, after splitting from the band Jal, released a new solo album, Jal Pari which became a mega hit. The Songs Woh Lamhey, Dil Haarey and few others were a smash hit that were played on Pakistani Radio’s all around. Atif Aslam’s soulful voice crossed the Pakistani border and reached India when Bollywood director Mahesh Bhatt called Atif Aslam to seek his consent to put “Woh Lamhey” as a song in the soundrack of his new motion picture, Zeher. After that, Atif Aslam’s music spread across to people and radio stations that play it all over the subcontinent now.

There was initially some controversy as some of the songs in Atif Aslam’s solo album were from the time when Atif did not leave the Jal band. This has brought up two saparate groups of people: One is who believes Atif Aslam stole the songs while the other group thinks that Atif did not steal any song and he had equal rights to sing the songs which were made with his involvement. One fact which is not much published is that Atif and Gohar (when they were together) openly said in an interview on a music web site that Aadat was made by the involvement of both Atif and Gohar, in terms of composition as well as lyrics. The group also said in that interview that they brought up the name Jal together.

Now that the band has split up, both the parties claim that the compositions along with the lyrics were owned by each of them, Gohar being more vocal in this claim.

But despite that, it was Atif Aslam’s magical voice that became the reason for fame of Jal. Atif has continued to grow as he has recently been successful in getting further deals from Bollywood. He recently sung a song for the movie Kalyug. The title of the song is ‘Juda Hokey Bhi’ which is a slight variation of the ever famous Aadat song. Along with that, he has also got a deal from Hollywood movie titled ‘Man Push Cart’ in which 3 of his songs are present.

Atif has won several awards for his performace both in India and Pakistan. Atif Aslam has already reached at a great place at this young age and he surely looks like he is going to provide more quality stuff to his listeners.

Atif is currently working on a new album entitled ‘Hangami Halaat’ with his new band mates, Mahmood Rehman on guitars and Sameer Shami on bass. the long awaited second album is due for release in the summer of 2006, and is hoped to finally put an end to the jal-atif controversey.

The single Jal Pari was released on 20 July, 2004 all over the nation by Sound Master and IC records.
