Career

In 2008 Roy came out with a bang with the release of his socio-political defiant album, Qismat Apnay Haat Mein, (Fate Lies in One’s Own Hands) that he launched at the Karachi Juvenile Prison at Central Jail, in July 2008. He underscored the need to rehabilitate Pakistan’s justice system that ignores the pitiable conditions of many prisoners, most of whom have spent many years in jail just waiting on their court hearing. While too many musicians in Pakistan seem content to skirt over issues of socio-political importance, treading the same dregs of human emotion again and again. However, after the boisterous Saali, Shehzad Roy has decided to pen an album of tracks that has more than its fair share of swipes at the current elites in charge of the nation. Qismet Apnay Haath Mein has generated a substantial amount of hype and fanfare for the seemingly controversial material embedded within the album. The soundtrack of Akshay Kumar’s upcoming movie “Khatta Meetha” features a song by Shehzad Roy. The song, titled “Bullshit” has been composed, written and sung in Pakistan. Khatta Meetha is a political satire revealing the rampant corruption in the Indian bureaucratic system. Akshay Kumar was looking for a theme track for his movie when he first met Shehzad Roy. He was immediately taken by Roy’s song “”Laga Reh“” and “Qismat Apne Haath Mein” and asked Roy to make an original song with the same theme. Shehzad has been dedicated to the building up of Zindagi Trust   the NGO which springs from his passion for helping impoverished and uneducated children. Roy once said; I feel so sad when I see some child working or on the streets  not going to school. The Trust is my best effort to do something about that. The program has 25 schools across the country and uses unique teaching methods along with incentives to entice children to attend. If children pass daily assessments they are rewarded Rs20. Some people say its wrong to bribe children to be in school says Shehzad but well-off kids are rewarded for their marks all the time. There is no reason poor children should not have the same support. Shehzad uses the proceeds from his concerts to support Zindagi Trust but has been spending his time making the organization more self-sufficient. For his efforts Shehzad was awarded the Tamgha-i-Imtiaz the youngest person and only pop singer to ever be honored by this Presidential recognition of efforts to help the impoverished of Pakistani society. Shehzad s work is found to be commendable by all   even the Pakistani Prime Minister. Shehzad Roy is credited for bringing Canadian music legend Bryan Adams to Pakistan for a charity concert. The concert was the first ever show done by a foreign music legend. Bryan Adams was impressed by the system of I Am Paid To Learn  campaign  praised Shehzad.
