Strings new Video - Koi Aanne Wala Hai

13 05 2008

Popular Pakistani music band Strings embarks on a tour to India on Saturday to promote their new album “Koi Aane Wala Hai”, their first in four years.

“We are very excited about the tour as we have an album with a fresh sound,” said Faisal Kapadia, the vocalist for Strings, which will kick off the tour with a concert in Lucknow.

“Koi Aane Wala Hai” will be released in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Dubai on May 16, the first time an album by Strings has been issued in different markets across the world simultaneously.

The decision to simultaneously release the album in different markets is aimed at countering piracy. “We want our fans to have ready access to the album. Fans who can’t access it will download it from the internet,” he said.

“Besides, we want to tap new markets like Bangladesh and Nepal, where the rock scene is booming,” Kapadia said. “There are a lot of people in these countries who are into our type of music.”

Kapadia and his band-mate Bilal Maqsood have already completed two videos for the album — one for the title track that features Bollywood actor John Abraham and another for the song “Jaago”.

“We will also be making a third video for the album,” Kapadia said.

“The video for ‘Koi Aane Wala Hai’, directed by Ravi Udyavar, is very interesting. And of course, it features John Abraham,” Kapadia, who was here with Maqsood to participate in the Olympic torch relay, told PTI.

The band took a break from finalising arrangements for its tour in Mumbai to fly to Islamabad to join the Olympic torch relay and rushed back to India the same evening.

“It was a real honour to be chosen for the torch relay and to run alongside some of the greatest sports personalities,” he said.

The Indian tour will see Strings performing in Lucknow, Agra, Hyderabad, Pune and Kohlapur before the release of the album.

Here are the chords of this song also.

I Love You Maa (Mother)

25 03 2008

 

I never say that

But darkness frightens me mother

I never show that

But I listen to you mother

You know everything, isn’t it mother

You know everything, my mother

 

Don’t just leave me in this crowd

May not even find way back home

Send me not, this far

Might even not reach your dreams

Am I that bad , my mother

Am I that bad, my mother

 

When ever Papa take me

And swing so hard, mother

My eyes search you

Think you’l come hold me close

 

I never tell them

But I control myself mother

Never let come on my face

But my mind is afraid inside

You know everything, isn’t it mother

You know everything, mother.

 

I never tell that

But darkness frightens me mother

I never show that

But I listen to you mother

You know everything, isn’t it mother

You know everything, my mother





Dance with me!!

So I am part of SIFE - Students In Free Enterprise

23 01 2008

Today I had interview with Stenden SIFE HR manager, Millesa Davis for Media & Marketing position. After interview of 20 to 30 minutes, I signed my contract and got my first task right away. Amazing…

“SIFE is a global non-profit organization active in more than 40 countries. SIFE is funded by financial contributions from corporations, entrepreneurs, foundations, government agencies and individuals. Working in partnership with business and higher education, SIFE establishes student teams on university campuses. These teams are led by faculty advisors and they are challenged to develop community outreach projects that reach SIFE’s five educational topics:

  • Market Economics
  • Success Skills
  • Entrepreneurship
  • Financial Literacy
  • Business Ethics

SIFE team members leverage their personal educational experiences, the expertise of their faculty advisors, the support of their local business advisory boards, and the resources of their institutions to implement programs that create real economic opportunities for members of their communities. The effectiveness of their programs is judged at competition. Each national SIFE organization conducts a national competition, which is judged by leaders from its business community. At competition, SIFE teams present the results of their educational outreach projects and compete to determine which team was most successful at creating economic opportunity for others. SIFE National Champion teams advance to the top level of competition, the SIFE World Cup.”

We will change ourselves…

16 01 2008

Today I was reading some posts on Pakistani network on facebook and I was disappointed by the young guns of Pakistan that they have nothing to discuss besides love, girls and sex.

Then I discussed this thing there and I was kicked out by some idiots there because for them Pakistan is not important. It really pissed me off. So I made group on facebook to see that how many people from Pakistan can join me to change ourselves. details of group are as follow:

 

I have very simple plan for change. if you want to bring change, then just promise yourself that you will not do anything bad which will bring damage to country.

Say:

No Lies,
No Voilence
No blamming
No distructions
No wasting of time

Say:
Yes hardwork
Yes peace
Yes honesty
Yes unity
