Atif Aslam to lend his vocals to a Hollywood movie

Atif Aslam, the heartthrob of millions, is going to lend his vocals to the soundtrack of Hollywood film, The Reluctant Fundamentalist.

The best thing about this guy is that he never gets on to the sleep mode and always keeps on coming out with tracks, either the solo projects or as playback for the Bollywood movies. But this time he has really gone an extra mile to secure a place as a playback singer in one of the much anticipated movies, The Reluctant Fundamentalist
.
The Reluctant Fundamentalist is a political thriller which has been directed by Indian filmmaker Mira Nair and is based upon Mohsin Hamid’s best selling book of the same name.
Earlier on we have been informing you about the progress being made regarding the movie and also disclosed that the soundtrack will be mainly comprising of Pakistani singers. As the movie revolves around a Pakistani guy and the storyline is pretty much related to the post 9/11 situation faced by the Pakistanis living abroad.
Our very own jugni girl, Meesha Shafi, will also be seen starring in it as well as giving her vocals for the movie. Also the pop/Rock legend of Pakistan, Ali Azmat will be doing playback for the film.
But right now, the man who has attracted the whole spot light is the Aadat boy. This surely will be a huge turning point in an already much successful career of Atif whose songs are seen to be a guaranteed success. But this is not the first time he has sung for a Hollywood movie. Earlier two tracks from his solo album were featured in another Hollywood movie “Man Push Cart”. But this time around it is really exciting to see him being a part of such a mega international project which has got some hugely talented and successful names on board. It will be really interesting to see how people respond to this current outing by Atif Aslam.
The Reluctant Fundamentalist is set to open the Venice Film Festival on August 29th, 2012 and it also stars Riz Ahmed, Kate Hudson, Kiefer Sutherland, Liev Schreiber, Shabana Azmi and Om Puri.
After seeing such a star studded cast and also some Pakistanis making their mark in Hollywood, this movie seems to be a must watch. All Atif Aslam fans out there, keep your fingers crossed for this entertainment thriller coming your way. This movie surely evokes a sense of pride to every Pakistani seeing how big Pakistanis are making globally. Hope this sense of pride remains with us even after its release.

Atif Aslam in Nairobi Kenya Exclusive Image - Aadeez

Atif Aslam is excited about Race-2

Atif Aslam

It's the love and respect that he receives in India that encourages him to visit the country year after year, says Pakistani singer Atif Aslam. It has nothing to do with promoting his films. "I didn't come to India to promote my film ( Bol) last year.

I do not promote my films the way all Indian actors do. The subject was strong enough to make its own place. And it wasn't a very big role. I come here to perform for my fans," says the singer who was in the city recently. His singing has been appreciated and criticised, but one hears people from all age groups humming his tunes. What makes him click? He says, "I don't know if it's the voice or the style of singing. I have no idea!" But he points out that he is highly disappointed with the new age singers. "I don't understand why the new generation singers are singing in my style. I think that if they follow themselves, they will be much bigger than Atif Aslam."

The singer also clears the air about certain song versions that have been attributed to him. He says, "People have been telling me that there's a version of a song from Talaash — I have no idea about the song - and it says it's written by Atif. Then there is a version of Nadaan Parindey again attributed to me on the internet. It sounded like my voice and I was like 'maine yeh kab gaya hai?' It's not me."

He was once quoted by TOI as saying that Bollywood is going through a stagnant phase. Does he still feel the same? "I still think so. The budgets of the commercial films are very high. The fun films and films like Bol get unnoticed because of the fact that they don't have a huge marketing strategy and a lot of directors do not believe in marketing strategies. For me, it's not a form of art anymore."

In the race to make films a hit, he feels that the music doesn't relate much to him. "Nowadays when I sing for these high budget films, I don't feel like I am a part of the art. I feel like I am singing just another song, unless and until I really work on it, like the song and think 'this is me'," he says. But he is excited about Race-2, for which he has lent his voice. Ask him if his fans will get another hit like Pehli Nazar and he says, "I did a couple of songs in the film. It was very challenging to top Pehli Nazar." The singer is also all praise for music composer Pritam. "A musician has to evolve with time and Pritam has. He is not making the same kind of music," he says.

Collaborations help an artiste grow and understand music played across the world. That's what helped Atif find his sound when he met Slash (of Guns n Roses). It all started when he performed a song with GnR in NY. "We did the Pink Floyd song Wish you were here. Slash and I have a common friend and that's how it worked out," he says. In fact, it worked out so well, that Slash and Gilby Clarke came on board for Atif's song Ek main aur ek tu. Atif shares, "The song features Clarke (on guitar), Matt Sorum and Slash. It's online, but just a small section. The best thing about the song is that it's going to be in Punjabi."

It's not just singing that Atif is tuned into; he is looking forward to meaty roles he can portray. Ask him if he has been offered any films and he says, "I have received offers from a lot of directors. And it goes like, 'ek ladka hoga aur ek ladki hogi, aur phir romance hoga aur phir khatam hoga. Acha aisa hoga, ki do ladkiyan hogi aur aap end mein mar jayenge'. Been there, done that." So is it that everybody wants the lover-boy image on the big screen? "For that, we have Ali Zafar, Ranbir Kapoor, Shahid Kapoor. I want to do films like Bol. It needs guts to make a debut with that kind of a subject, because such films don't get accepted," he says.

Jonathan Paul
Musician Jonathan Paul, who was part of Atif's band, is reportedly the youngest musician from India to perform at the O2 Arena in May 2012. The only Indian to have performed at the stage before Jonathan is music composer AR Rahman. Jonathan said, "The O2 experience was beyond spectacular. I had the privilege to perform on a Grand Piano on one of the modern world's greatest stages. As an Indian boy, to be invited by a Pakistani superstar Atif Aslam, in England, it was incredibly inspiring to witness the power of music uniting people across borders and boundaries."
Elated with the performance, Naz Choudhury (of that O2 concert), shared, "We were thrilled with his performance with Atif. He's the youngest Indian pianist to perform at the 02."
