Atif Aslam, the guy whose very first song rocked the whole music
industry,the guy whose debut album "JalPari" acquired the status of the
best selling album of the year!!,
is here to answer the questions asked by his aadeez, both personal and
professional. So here is the
interview:-
Assalaam u Aleikum Atif,
Itne arse se aapka sir nahi khaya per ap bas, aur saber nahi hota:p so
we decided to have an interview n have thus prepared this questionaire
which you have to fill up n in doin so if you come across a question that you
find too personal or you dont wanna answer it for some other reason to its
ok,
fine, koi masla nai:)
1.high: Who is (or was) your jalpari in real life?
This is an imaginary character , there is no kind of reality in it
.Although i have liked
a number of persons in my life but you cannot say that any particular
person is my jal pari or not.
2.high: How religious are you?
I think religion is the best shelter in any kind of problem and confusion.
I m not very very religious but koshish kerta houn k Fraiz poray karoun
3.high: In ur interview on IM's show "all that jazz" (an old interview) while
singing adat u said "miss u" (during the song). Who were u addressing?
heheheh
you people are very observant
well i did not say for any one particular , that was only for the fans
4.Dry Sea: What exactly do you feel right before you have to do a TV
program or
sing live? nervous, excited ya ab to aadat se hai:)? Especially what
were your feelings before your first live concert (i.e the one outside
mcdonalds)
?
I was very ambitious at that time and i really wanted to perform best in
front of audience .It wasnot a very good sound sysytem but
fortunately we got enough supporters from our college and it went very
well Alhumdolillah in that fogy night of december 2002
5. Dry Sea: Today you are the most famous Pakistani solo artist(mashAllah)
but as
everything has its effects one way or the other, how do you think fame
haschanged you?
Fame havent changed my nature, i m still the same old atif but there is a
severe change in my schedule
most of the times i m unable to find the time even for my own self.I have
been extreeeemly careless about my health but i have to strech out my self
to do different things.
6. Dry Sea: I dont believe on other sources so I want this questions
answered
right from you: Do you really charge for autographs and pictures after
concerts?
This is all crap what people are trying to spread against me
ager pakisan main aisa hounay lag paray tou is tarha to koi bhi artist
survive hi na karay
houta yeh hay k jin lougoun ko autograph mil jata hay they are happy
aur jin ko rush ki wajah say nahin milta they start badmouthing me
one should have patience .i feel satisfied and i know what is the truth so
i care the least .If they are badmouthing me they will be badmouthed by
someone else .
i m a strong believer k ager aap kissi k saath zyadati karin tou aap k
saath shayed us ay barh ker hougi .
7. (qurrie, atif_rocks, yaqeen_01): Are you planning to do concerts in
other countries? If you are then how soon?
InshAllah aap sab lougoun ki duaoun say we will do it very soon.
8. Samia Malik: What part of Wazirabad are you/your family from?
My Grand Parents use to live there at Sialkot Road.It was nice and naughty
childhood there.
9. Samia Malik: Are you planning to include something for the more mature
generation
in your next album becasue my parents love your voice but they don't
understand his
your music so if you do one spiritual song, that ll be a huge hit because
everyone
can relate to it.(just a suggestion)
you are very right but you see our key audience is teenagers and students
, but in the next album i would definately think of making some thing for
the older generation which would be containing matured lyrics and slow
paced music
10. Mahar: Does Shahbaz Aslam read the sms's to you which fans send on his
number ?
Not all of them but the sms which contain some really good text and
description and advice
