Shafqat Amanat Ali Khan and Rahat Fateh Ali Khan are making a huge impact on the Bollywood as playback singers. There is an interesting article on these singers at BigBangBong . Worth reading as Pakistan singers like Atif Aslam and these two are making a significant contribution to the desi music. Atif ’s Pheli Nazar Mein is the number one most played song on this website. Shafqat’s Mitwa too is a favorite here. Rahat is following in the footsteps of his uncle Ustaad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan the legend.

And lastly not to forget the up and coming star Amanat Ali. Do check out Amanat Ali’s version of Tujhse Naraz Nahi Zindagi .. it is heart wrenching, a must listen.

jeene ke liye socha hi na tha, dard sambhalane honge
muskuraoon to, muskurane ke karz utaarne honge
muskuraoon kabhi to lagata hai
jaise hontonn pe karz rakhaa hai

Lyrics by Gulzar
