Adnan Sami’s concert will send positive message: Rijiju
New Delhi, October 4
Adnan Sami, who renounced Pakistani citizenship to become an Indian in 2016, will perform on the banks of the Dal Lake in Srinagar this week.
The 46-year-old singer, famous for his number ‘Lift Kara De’, will enthral the Kashmir valley with a variety of songs at a special concert organised by the Union Home Ministry and the Jammu and Kashmir Government.
“Kashmir is not only about violence. It is a lively place with a culture of music, art and tourism. We want to send this message through the concert,” Union Minister of State for Home Kiren Rijiju said today. Sami was born in London to a Pakistani diplomat father and his mother was from Jammu and Kashmir.
The concert is expected to be held later this week, a Home Ministry official said. — PTI
