 GL- Tell us something about your childhood.

Komal- I was a happy child who use to spread joys on people faces. I was very naughty and my mother and father were annoyed of my mischievous attitude.

GL- Whom do you like most, your mother or father?

Komal- I love both of them. Dad supported me throughout in doing music while mummy didn’t like it initially but now she has developed liking for it.

GL- Do you like children?

Komal-I love children a lot. I love the children of my two brothers and it puts me off if I don’t get to see them for a day or two. We all family members are like fingers of one hand who stay united and support each other through thick and thin.

GL- Which brother you share the most intimacy with?

Komal-I like both of my brothers but have close bonding with the elder one. I share everything with him. My younger brother is a choreographer. He runs a dance studio where many choreographers teach dance. He also accompanies dad in his business and makes TV commercials as well. My videos are mostly choreographed by him.

GL- In which field singing, acting or hosting you consider yourself performing at your best?

Komal-I have been doing all these things for a very long time but I feel more attachment with music. Right now I am learning music from Ustad Hamid Ali Khan.

GL- Tell us about the experience of hosting Karachi Nights.

Komal-To tell you the truth I am totally enjoying the experience of doing this show. It gives me great pleasure to live all of my dreams simultaneously and I am having lot of fun. It is necessary for an artist to enjoy his work.

GL- Who came up with the idea of Karachi Nights?

Komal- It was the idea of the channel. They called me and insisted that they want it to be hosted only by me. At that point of time, I was in talk with many channels for hosting morning shows but I wasn’t interested in doing them because with live shows a person gets bound and does not get enough liberty to do other tasks. I have to travel frequently for my music engagements and live show would create hindrances in my travelling schedule so I refused those offers. I accepted the offer for hosting this show because it is a recorded show and wouldn’t interfere in my travelling engagements.

GL- Did you like performing in Coke Studio?

Komal- I enjoyed the experience of Coke Studio thoroughly. It earned me lot of fame. Both of my songs that I performed at the show are on Youtube and people can access them easily.

GL- You kept yourself away from music for a very long period of time, why?

Komal- I had went to Muscat and was running a cooking business over there. I use to supply food to many places.

GL- So, now have you closed down the cooking business?

Komal- Yes. And the reason is music because I feel a person dies when he leaves a hobby or a work which he loves the most and music is my passion that’s why I decided to came back for the love of music.

GL- You must be a great cook, isn’t it?

Komal- Yes, of course. Doing this business has really enhanced my expertise in cooking. I didn’t cook Pakistani dishes much but make very tasty western dishes. Everybody at home love to eat whenever I cook at home.

GL- Is it true that you had said once that you don’t feel attachment to Pakistan?

Komal- How can I say this? This is only a rumour and it hurt me a lot when it roared around. I sincerely love my country as it has given me respect and fame. I had said that we are artists and we can perform anywhere in the world but people inferred totally wrong meaning of this statement.

GL- How do you spend time at home?

Komal- When at home I take rest and relax myself. I don’t have much interest in buying new clothes and jewelry and use them only for shooting of my programs.

GL- Can you bear criticism?

Komal- Absolutely, it is criticism that provides us an opportunity to bring improvement in our work. But criticism is good only when it is being carried out within certain boundaries.

GL- Tell us about your academic education.

Komal- I have done Honours in Computer Science and earned graduation degree from England. Then I did diploma in Microsoft engineering, interior decoration and acting.
