“If we talk about Pakistan, we don’t have many big names and singers, but even with limited resources, Allah blessed me with a chance to reach Bollywood. That’s the biggest blessing of my life. He made me shine in such a big world, and I can never thank Him enough. Of course, I miss Bollywood. It’s been eight to ten years now. I miss performing there, recording in studios, and spending time with friends. But I am happy that music is flourishing everywhere,” Atif said.

Speaking about his experience singing for Salman Khan, Atif recalled, “We were in Dubai with Vishal-Shekhar. I remember he asked me to sing in low notes, while people usually expect high notes from me. When I sang softly, a beautiful melody came out, and the lyrics were amazing too. Yes, I sang for Salman Khan, and it’s always a pleasure because we’ve met a few times. What a man, what a guy.”
