So if you have been missing hearing Shafqat sing something new, here are some of his recent releases to make your day.

  1. Kuch Nahi- Reprised, Tubelight

Shafqat in a recent interview shares his view on music directors making multiple versions of a song. If they have come up with something really good they are eager to showcase it and try various ways of presenting it, he says. This was in context of the wonderful Phir le aaya from Barfi that had three beautiful versions. Shafqat’s was the best, I felt. Same goes for this 3- version song from Tubelight. Just listen to how Shafqat’s version ends and you will end up agreeing with me.

  1. Yalghaar, OST

This film is an ambitious project from the Pakistan Film industry which has been in the revival  mode since the last couple of years. How many people know that Shafqat is a brilliant composer and lyricist besides being the exceptional singer that he is? He has composed and written most of the songs of his independent albums so far,and this one too!

  1.  Alif Allah Insaan,OST
  2.   Lekin, OST

Both songs for Pakistani TV series. I love the second one in particular

 

  1. Channan

Saving the best one for last. A single for the project called Existential Sufis. Love the title and the singing transports you to a quiet, lonely night….restless yet peaceful. Songs like this one make you admire the versatility of Shafqat’s singing. He has such a powerful voice but he sings soft, gentle numbers with so much vulnerability and tenderness. It’s hard, thus, to resist falling in love with it…over and over again!

  1. Both songs, Chhanan and Kal Hi Ki Baat done with Existential Sufi are so GOOD but why are they relatively unknown? Why are these songs not promoted well, I don’t get it.
