Pak audience is not in state of enjoying my music" - Ahmed Jehanzeb
What
is
special
about
your
new
album
Laut
Aao?
You
will
get
the
different
shades
of
vocals,
music
and
everything
according
to
the
taste
of
today's
trend.
Many
singers
in
Bollywood
bear
the
influence
of
the
legends
in
their
voice.
But
I
have
a
different
tonal
quality
and
it
does
not
match
with
anyone.
The
album
is
also
blessed
with
powerful
lyrics.
It
is
melodious
and
soothing
to
the
ears.
Is
it
a
romantic
album?
Yes,
I
would
call
it
a
romantic
album.
While
working
on
the
album,
which
audience
did
you
have
in
your
mind,
Indian
or
Pakistani?
I
only
had
Indian
audience
in
my
mind
because
Pakistani
audience
have
not
reached
that
state
now
and
have
gone
towards
more
serious
kind
of
things.
The
style
of
music
across
the
border
is
very
different
from
that
of
Bollywood.
How
did
music
happen
to
you?
During
my
time
music
was
not
given
so
much
encouragement
but
my
father
was
always
fond
of
music.
Ever
since
I
was
born
I
had
all
the
music
instruments
in
front
of
me.
I
was
always
attracted
towards
music
and
wanted
to
learn
and
play
all
the
instruments.
I
loved
the
harmonium
and
one
day
my
Abba
asked
me
if
I
liked
harmonium
or
not
and
when
I
said
yes,
he
gifted
me
a
keyboard
on
my
fourth
birthday.
He
made
me
rehearse
with
him
and
he
never
forced
me
to
learn
music.
I
started
my
journey
at
the
age
of
four
and
at
nine
I
released
my
first
album
named
Ahmed
Jehanzeb
–
The
Wonder
Boy.
What
kind
of
songs
did
the
album
have?
It
contained
national
based
songs
(Kaumi
songs).
These
kinds
of
songs
were
more
in
trend;
individual
singing
was
not
in
trend
at
that
time.
My
Abba
made
me
familiar
with
the
stage
from
the
very
tender
age
of
mine,
so
that
I
don't
get
nervous
or
hesitate
in
facing
audience
while
performing.
At
what
age
did
you
start
your
journey
of
stage
shows?
I
started
my
journey
at
the
age
of
eleven
or
twelve.
I
used
to
experiment
singing
different
kinds
of
songs
then.
What
kind
of
songs
did
you
sing?
I
used
to
sing
ghazals
as
well
as
the
hit
songs
of
that
time
like
"Papa
Kehte
Hai..." and
all
other
Bollywood
hit
numbers.
When
did
you
release
your
second
album?
My
second
album
got
released
in
2001
with
the
name
Parastish,
which
came
after
a
gap
of
15
years
from
my
first
album.
In
the
meantime
I
was
doing
stage
shows
all
over
the
world.
What
kind
of
songs
did
it
contain?
It
had
compilation
of
solid
classical
numbers.
It
was
a
big
hit
and
gave
me
a
lot
of
fame.
How
did
coming
to
India
happen?
There
was
a
song
of
mine
in
my
second
album
Parastish
which
became
famous
through
internet.
Then
one
day
Sanjay
Dutt
called
me
when
he
had
organized
a
Tsunami
relief
fund
show
and
he
wanted
me
to
participate
there.
Two
singers
came
at
that
time
from
Pakistan,
one
was
Strings
and
the
other
was
me
and
the
other
celebs
for
the
show
were
film
stars
from
Pakistan
like
Meera,
Md.
Rana
and
all.
During
this
time
I
met
Rajiv
Sivani
who
was
vice
president
of
Tips.
Do
you
feel
that
you
are
lucky?
I
feel
that
I
am
lucky
because
Khuda
gave
me
opportunities
and
I
met
right
people
at
the
right
time.
It
is
my
good
luck
that
I
met
someone
like
Rajiv
who
gave
me
a
chance.
I
got
all
the
facilities
from
the
company
while
recording
with
them.
They
provide
me
very
good
directors,
lyrics,
crew
members
etc.
You
have
given
music
in
Khuda
Ke
Liye,
any
other
films
after
that?
I
had
composed
five
songs
for
Khuda
Ke
Liye
and
I
have
sung
those
songs,
too.
This
film
changed
the
whole
scenario
of
Pakistani
film
and
no
other
film
is
being
made
yet
to
match
that
one.
And
if
we
talk
about
music
it
has
to
be
something
which
will
be
cherished
and
enjoyed
by
all
for
a
long
time.
Any
film
offers
in
India?
Who
would
not
like
to
work
in
Bollywood
movies
but
as
of
now
I
want
to
concentrate
in
composing
good
music
only.
