Atif Aslam`s tribute to the legendary Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan singing the latter`s iconic song `Sanu ek pal chaen na aaway`, accompanied by a video directed by Bilal Lashari leaves quite a bit to be desired. The great NFK sang it with a lot of feeling and great understanding of the lyrics. His voice (which has been used in this track too) carries the pangs of estrangement that have left the singer (read: protagonist) crestfallen. On the other hand, Atif A seems to be enjoying the melody (and singing it well undoubtedly) but lacks the requisite sense of longing that the song is all about.
