“I would pass by a cliff, and want to jump off it like Amitabh Bachchan in Bollywood movies”. Thus speaks Adeel, the musical heart throb from Pakistan, all set to hit the musical scene.
And jumped off the cliff he has – from the comforts of a successful career in modeling, he has answered the divine call within to be a musician and has plunged into Muse to give the world a new voice.
“I always wanted to be musician – I simply had no other dream”, says the stunningly handsome, charming 23 year old heart-stopper from Pakistan, who is all set to see his debut album ‘Koi Chehra’ being released internationally by Tips Industries on 20 th November.
Life has handed Adeel many options and avenues. Born into a highly educated and cultured family in Pakistan on 15 June 1984, his eldest brother is a doctor and his middle brother graduated from a leading Canadian university. “My father was very clear that education came first, and I was good in studies. God was kind to ensure that when, at the age of 8 I excelled in my school exams, Dad presented me a small keyboard, and there began my formal journey into a passionate relationship with music. I was soon a star in school, performing for all school shows. By the time I reached college, I had formed a band called ‘Rooh’ in Islamabad and we were committed and successful performers, not allowing music to come in the way of studies however.”
On completion of his board exams, Adeel’s father was very clear that he would become a doctor. Adeel’s protests and entreaties that he wanted to take up music fell on deaf ears and soon the young handsome lad found himself studying dentistry at the prestigious King Edwards Medical College.
Fate however had willed otherwise for this child of destiny. Into his first year, his face was spotted by none less than the mighty Pepsi International. Climbing on to heap of contenders, he came out on top and was selected to be the Pepsi Brand Ambassador for Pakistan in 2003! The turning point brought him for the shooting of the advertisement to the city of his dreams – Bollywood!! “As a youngster I was completely besotted by Bollywood films. That was my destination – the ultimate Eastern citadel of the Dream Merchants. And the ad film was directed by none less than Prahlad Kakkar.”
Adeel continued with Pepsi as their Brand Ambassador but did not let the allure of a modeling career deviate his mind from music. He refused lucrative offers, sticking only to Pepsi and in 2004 started working on his debut album, now to be released worldwide by Tips.
Adeel believes in Sufism and romance. Musically he believes in all world styles, is a devotee of the music of Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, A.R.Rahman and Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy. Singers Sonu Nigam and Enrique are his idols.
Koi Chehra is an expression from Adeel’s soul. He connects to the aspirations of a young lad his age – connecting to people, to love, to life, joy and finally to the Maker. A beautiful fusion of feeling and philosophy emerges in the lyrical content. The music is stylish, energetic, young and fresh. Groovy yet vulnerable.
