Atif Aslam and Fawad Khan rock in Pepsi Battle of the Bands teaser

We hardly got a glimpse of the talented Meesha Shafi!

21 Jul, 2017

Fawad Khan, Atif Aslam and Meesha Shafi are all set to rock their fans in Pepsi Battle of the Bands.

The music TV show's teaser heavily features Atif Aslam, while we only get a shot of Fawad Khan towards the end. Meesha Shafi was barely seen in the video with only her shadow falling on white curtains — we almost missed her!

The teaser is short but it's interesting to see Fawad Khan go back to his roots. In the show, Fawad and Meesha are joined by Aaroh's Farooq Ahmed in the jury. Together, the trio will judge the performances of 20-30 new talented bands who will compete for the title award in the show.

Pepsi Battle of the Bands hopes to revive the declining culture of bands and to produce new music in Pakistan. It also offers a fresh start to musicians, providing them a stage to unveil their true talent and passion for the music they create.

The TV show started in 2002 and gave Pakistan a host of talented artists including popular bands like eP, Aaroh and Mekaal Hasan Band.

Alamgir is still alive.Intellectual theft has been normal in Pakistan but this is highway robbery. Making mess of Allamgir's song (mashing it up) and making money out of it is theft of intellectual property. They did not even had The courtsey to inform him or ask him. .

I'm excited for BOTB as they will give chance for new talent to shine. New songs to emerge and band culture to rise once again!, Thanks to Pepsi for helping unearth new talent. Who knows we might strike gold and find future Fawad, Atif, noori, meekal Hassan and etc.

@Irfan up huq Alamgir was cool with it. Infact fawad Khan will be singing his songs for his biopic movie too. Also vital signs the band members played instruments on the track and are cool with it even. Those tracks are over 2 decades old and need an upgrade for new generation to like. Pepsi BOTB did a good job. So please don't be a useless hater.
