Karan Khan’s not-so-picture-perfect Peshawar
Singer releases new album titled ‘Tasweer’, and dedicates it to the peace in the city
PESHAWAR:
Pashto singer Karan Khan has released his 13th music album Tasweer. Like his previous works, the album is an amalgamation of Pashto ghazals and tappas, with an exception of one qawwali, which is dedicated to peace in the country.
Khan is one of the few singers from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (K-P), after Sardar Ali Takar and Haroon Bacha, who has managed to garner a worldwide fan-following in a short span of time.
For Tasweer, Khan has collaborated with legendary singer Bacha, who has joined him for few of the music compositions. Music for the album has been produced by Asif and Yamee, while the rabab is played by Waqar Atal.
“There is something for every Pashtun living in any part of the world,” said Khan while speaking to The Express Tribune. “There are romantic ghazals, some songs for peace in Peshawar, some on history, and some, on the war that has affect
PESHAWAR: Pashto singer Karan Khan is working on a self-sponsored project under which profiles of around artists and literati of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Fata will be documented.
“I have started work on a comprehensive project under which I will document complete profiles showcasing bio-data and contributions of the prominent artists and literati of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Fata both in audio and video forms. It will benefit young researchers and even common folk,” Karan Khan told this scribe.
He spoke at length regarding his music career, current and future plans. When asked why he always preferred numbers depicting deep sense of Pakhtun cultural loss and identity crisis, he said that he could not think of a romantic song over the death of his people.
“I don’t want to disappoint my people either but I select poetic pieces that reflect real and on ground situation of Pakhtuns in the region, which has been the battlefield for the last more than three decades. Pakhtuns are in jeopardy, passing through crucial times,” said Karan Khan.
He said that normally singers didn’t touch such numbers because it carried a slight political tinge and they feared it might risk their careers. H
