Shortly after Syrian singer Asalah Nasri married director Tareq Al Arian, she began recording the songs for her upcoming album.

 

Rumors have begun circulating that Asalah's ex-husband, Aiman has filed a lawsuit against her demanding that she pay a 5 million US dollar fine for breaking their contract. Rumors claim, Asalah signed a contract with Aiman when they were married giving him exclusive rights to her music.

 

According to the London based weekly, Alsharq Al Awsat, Tareq confirmed that Asalah is currently in Beirut and has not been notified of a lawsuit. There are no legal disputes between Asalah and Aiman because she was previously under contract with production company 'Rotana,' he asserted.

 

Tareq also stated that Asalah did not sign a contract with his company, 'Star Jet Production,' but only sought his assistance in recording some of the songs.

After her album is complete she will submit the final copy to 'Rotana.'

 

One of the songs Asalah completed recording is "Aktar Min Elli Ana Bahlam Feeh" (More than I was Dreaming of), which is said to be a special dedication to Tareq.

 

In addition, Asalah will film a music video for the song under the direction of Tareq.
