“Atif is multi dimensional in the way people don’t know. “Feels good, actually,” he replied in his usual state of calmness. Nerves, pressure…how did it feel to be hosting a show for the first time? I caught up with Atif after the press conference, while he was having a quick lunch, before the eventual and inevitable spin cycle of rehearsals began. Other than Nabila, who’s a style icon and an integral part of the LSA red carpet, the rest of this group remains unseen as it works backstage, tirelessly, and it was good of the host to give credit where it is due.Įventually Atif entered and after acknowledging his role in this year’s event, he called for his guitar and sang a few opening lines from his latest single, ‘Younhi’. Before Atif arrived, HSY had made generous introductions to the pillars that LSA stands on year after year: Nabila, Fareshteh Aslam, Nadeem J, Fariyha Subhani and Raheel Pasha from Unilever. “Atif Aslam will be hosting the Lux Style Awards this year,” this year’s Show Director Hassan Sheheryar Yasin announced right before the superstar walked in to huge applause. It was on one of those endlessly busy Sunday afternoons that a press conference was announced to reveal a huge beam of news for fans. Life becomes a roller coaster ride when the Lux Style Awards are around the corner, especially for the organizers who spend endless days and nights ensuring that the show lives up to expectations. Atif talks to Instep about his first time as host and what all he’ll be bringing to the show.
