While Ali Zafar has multiple mega hit tracks to his name with lots of awards and vast recognition, it wasn’t until very recently that the poster boy for Pak-Pop showed the world that he deserves all the attention for his music. The improvement was first highlighted with his various appearances in Coke Studio series, performing some of his old material but mostly leaning towards a new soulful musical direction. This great musical growth was sustained pretty well in his 3rd album “Jhoom” which was released by his own label Alif Records (and by YRF Music in India) roughly a year ago.
Ali Zafar and Katrina Kaif have bonded quite well since they became co-stars in the YRF‘s latest release “Mere Brother Ki Dulhan“. Not just that, Zafar also gave her guitar lessons and the two have bonded musically too.
Zafar wagered with his co-star Katrina that if the movie collects more than 50 crores in the first 2 weeks of hitting the cinemas, she will have to star in the Zafar’s next music video. Katrina humbly accepted the bet and apparently Ali won based on a box office report by Taran Adarsh, an Indian analyst.
Ali Zafar, the prince of pop is out with his newest song – “Jee Dhoondta Hai” which is written by Mirza Ghalib. Yes! The much awaited video from the album “Jhoom” is out! The video also features Aisha Linnea Akhtar of Slackistan fame.
