Atif Aslam's Biography

Muhammad Atif Aslam was born on 12th march 1983 in Wazirabad Gujranwala. Atif's kinder garden started in Model town Lahore at Kimberley Hall School. His first stage manifestation was in a fancy dress show at his school when he was in grade–1 where he performed as Imran Khan “ Captain of Pakistan Cricket Team”. Since then cricket was like a passion to him. He was never tired of playing cricket for hours in his car porch whether it is scorching sun outside or even raining. At that time he did not use to listen any kind of songs.

At the age of 9 in 1991 he shifted to Rawalpindi/Islamabad where he continued his studies in Saint Pauls School. He started playing Basket Ball and he used to lead his school team for matches. Atif came back to Lahore in 1995 where he continued his studies in Divisional Public School Model Town. For his immense passion for cricket he was selected in his school team as a fast bowler. Atif cleared his 10th grade in 14 years of age with a distinctive edge that he has always been the youngest boy in the class because of his double promotions while he was in Kimberley Hall.

Atif started his HSc in PAF College Lahore. Cricket was all the times with him. He was in his college team as well, where he presented his college in other cities. Beside his studies, he was putting his maximum time in practicing for professional cricket.

During his college life he came across with some interest in music. His eldest brother was having a collection of more than 8,000 songs of almost all music genres. Un-intentionally he was developing a habit of listening to all kinds of music in his house. As a good learner he quickly grasped the control of voice but till that time he was not interested in singing, his passion was to enter in Pakistan cricket team as a fast bowler and he was right on track while practicing at the net at Shapes club Lahore where Imran Khan used to come and give tips to him for bowling.

The twist in the story comes when one day he was singing with his friends at the college canteen. His friends insisted him to participate in the singing competition on Independence Day celebrations at PAF College Lahore and Sargodha in 1998. He performed there and won the competition. After HSc Atif Joined Punjab Institute of Computer Science Gulberg Campus. This time studies were much more demanding as compared to the previous ones. He had to sacrifice his time for the cricket.

His hobby of singing continued when he entered the singing competition of his college. There were a total of 8 participants .The media team entered Atif's name in the competition at the eleventh hour and he won the competition by singing a hit number Duur of Strings Band

He kept on winning these competitions every semester until he announced that he will no longer participate in next competitions so that someone else can also win the competition.

He encountered Goher at his college who had good interest in Music & was a good, talented guitarist. Together they used to practice a lot and started doing mini concerts for their friend. Atif used to sing Junoon's and String's songs at the concerts. The volume of cheers of audience kept on increasing. They performed concerts for their college, McDonalds and some other restaurants as well.

Atif recorded the legendary song “AADAT” at Mekal Hassan's Studio. Mekal injected his professionalism in the song to make it worth listening time after time. Atif formed the band and named the band as “JAL” which means water, the essence of life. The song got popularity on different musical websites on Pakistan.

Because of the eternal mercifulness of Allah who gave the kind of continuous love of people to Atif , lime light, interviews, fans, autographs, snaps, concerts, get-togethers, traveling all came to him at once and Atif was really stretched up for all this because in the mean time he had the final exams of BCS and he cleared his Bachelorz in Computer Science ( hons) from University of Central Punjab.

thak kay nani ki godi main sona
parion kay mele main akay na jana
