[edit] Music direction career

Mithoon first started out in the Mahesh Bhatt camp adapting popular Pakistani pop songs into Hindi movies most notably Woh Lamhe from the movie Zeher. Since then he has moved on to composing his own music as a guest composer in movies like Bas Ek Pal and Anwar. Although the movies did not do well, the music was well received and Mithoon's work was appreciated.

In 2006 Mithoon replaced Himesh Reshammiya for composing the soundtrack for the movie Aggar. Mithoon also sang in Aggar, dispaying his powerful voice. Earlier his full movie album "The Train" marked his very first full album composition for a Hindi movie.

During his days in the Bhatt camp, Mithoon forged a good friendship with Pakistani Pop Singer Atif Aslam resulting in their joint composition for Atif's new album Doorie along with Sachin Gupta.

Mithoon also worked for an international movie, a Malaysian film titled Diva of a Malaysian company named Astro Shaw, for which he had composed 5 songs.

[edit] Singer

Primarily a music director, Mithoon made his singing debut with The Train : Some lines should never be crossed . Many people think that he has sung only one song in the album – ‘Woh Ajnabee'. But actually the song 'Mausam' which everybody thinks has been sung by Atif, has actually been composed and sung by Mithoon himself. Various remixes of these songs have also been made.

'The Train's music album has been positively received & the songs sung by Mithoon are big hits. Mithoon eerily sounds like KK and Atif Aslam. His singing style, as of this album, is similar to that of Atif Aslam.

His next film score, Aggar, was moderately received. Only the song Ke Bin Tere gathered airplay and was a hit. The music for song Paas Aaya Kyon is infact better than Bin Tere.
