But most of the time it is a mixture of lot of things. The beginning of the Pakistani pop band ‘ Jal’ was also associated with such breakup. The band got split right after the release their first single. The band lead guitarist and the main man Goher Mumtaz was looking for a singer for some of his compositions when he got introduced to Atif Asalm.

Goher Mumtaz the brain behind the melodious Aadat got irritated and situation got tense that resulted in band’s breakup. For months they both fight for the band name “Jal” (means ‘water’ in Urdu) as they both construed it to have brand value.
During the mean time Atif Aslam releases a music video of ‘ Mahi Ve’ shoot in Dubai. As Atif started getting offers for concerts and projects he quits the Jal name fight and started concentrating on his solo career.

It seems that Goher has included Farhan Saeed in a hurry without going through the proper process of auditioning. Atif also included some of the Jal song in his first album ‘ Jal Pari’ (2004) in addition to hit Aadat like ‘Bheegi Yaadein (Woh Lamhe)’. ‘Woh Lamhe’ was also included in Indian movie ‘ Zeher’ featuring Emraan Hashmi with sexy Udita Goswami and Shamita Shetty. As usual the Indian producer ruins the original Pakistani version of the song. But this is all history now; today both Atif and Goher have successful musical careers.
Both of them have also buried their hatched against each other. But critics still says that Jal would have been an explosive band if Goher and Atif had resolved their differences and stayed together. Click Pictures to enlarge.
