Some Lesser Known Facts About Shafqat Amanat Ali
Does Shafqat Amanat Ali smoke: Not Known
Does Shafqat Amanat Ali drink alcohol: Not Known
Though Ali comes from a family of Pakistani classical singers, he specializes in fusion music. He belongs to Patiala Gharana and is the ninth generation of lineage.
While talking to India Today, he revealed that his first salary was mere INR 3000 which he had received on working as a music teacher in a school. However, owing to his family customs, he handed over the entire amount to his grandmother.
Before getting the popularity in India through his song âMitwaâ from the film âKabhi Alvida Na Kehna,â he was a famous lead vocalist of Fuzön, a pop rock band based in Karachi, Pakistan which split up back in 2006.
The nickname âRockstar Ustaadâ was given to him by music composer Salim Merchant when they first met for the recording of âYeh Honsla.â Salim thought Ali would be in a crisp kurta-pyjama with a shawl, but when Ali came, he was wearing Jeans and T-shirt with a ponytail on the head. This surprised Salim, and when he finally heard Ali singing classical, the nickname automatically came out of his tongue.
In March 2008, Pervez Musharraf, the then President of Pakistan, conferred on him the âPresidentâs Pride of Performance Awardâ for his outstanding achievements in the field of art & culture.
