He is multi-lingual and is fluent in Pashto, Urdu, and Punjabi.CareerShah's solo career began in the late 1990s with lots of hits to his credit from the onset, to mention the song Ghum which broke popularity records.
Ghum is not Rahim Shah's personal composition; it is Pashto folk song or tappa, sung by an anonymous singer.
Haroon Bacha, a well-known Pashtun singer also sang Ghum, but it was Shah who made the song a hit because he translated the "tappa" into Urdu and gave the song his own arrangement.

He sang Ghum under the supervision of Salman Alvi and recorded his album working extremely hard on making it different from others.
The song turned out to be a huge hit and was highly appreciated by the people.His Pashto album Peera became an instant hit after its release.
