An engaging conversation with singer Lucky Ali...on his love, life, passion and beliefs.... Dr Neha Miglani compiles the dialogue during a brief cover shoot with him....
Words fall short to define the depth and brilliance of his personality and life... Maqsood Mahmood Ali (Lucky Ali), one of the most loved singers of the nation, who, if I may take liberty to quote, has carved a niche of his own and incepted a lineage of music, has a massive fan following base across the globe, and certainly has a rather interesting life and style both!
“Nature rules me,” he declares. His purpose of music- “To spread love!” he quotes.
“I never enjoyed acting. I thought I was just fooling around. It took me sometime to discover what I wanted to do!” he quips. His four-yearlong apprenticeship with the noted and celebrated movie director and screenwriter Shyam Benegal is a special memory for him. “He (Shyam) was the one who reaffirmed to me that I was the son of a renowned actor and I needed to be careful with what I chose to do in life,” sighs Lucky. His greyish-white curly hair, with the dawning age now, still makes him look as charming and mystic as he seemed in his music albums decades ago.
“I was introduced to music at the age of five. At the age of 13, I had my guitar. My parents however were not really impressed with me,” he recalls.
In a sojourn, spanning trips to various countries, he did some oil rigging, cleaned carpets, did lot of miscellaneous stuff (while finding what he wants to do) when music came calling. He settled and got married in New Zealand when a music company from India urged him to release a music album. “That’s when O Sanam happened,” he says.
