Lucky Ali -- MTV Unplugged 2

MTV Unplugged 2 - Episode 7 - Lucky Ali

Perhaps the only popular singer-songwriter, composer and actor featured on this year's edition of the show, Lucky Ali's haunting ballads hardly need an introduction. His first album Sunoh, launched in 1996, gained much worldwide acclaim and earned him a place among pop music's greatest. The song 'O Sanam' is touted as one of the best indie-pop songs ever, and featured on the MTV Asia charts for a total of 60 weeks. Over the years, Ali has launched 5 more albums, all of which went on to do fairly well critically and commercially. His Bollywood playback career involves collaborations with numerous reputed music directors including Rajesh Roshan, AR Rahman and Vishal-Shekhar, and the song 'Ek Pal Ka Jeena' from the film Kaho Na Pyaar Hai even won him a Filmfare Award for Best Male Singer. For the most part, Lucky Ali's set on MTV Unplugged comprises songs off of his older albums. But it would seem thoroughly incomplete without a sprinkling of his popular film numbers rearranged acoustically.
