Why did Arijit Singh apologize to the Pakistani actress at the concert in Dubai?

The free movement of Pakistani artists to India has been restricted for several years. Restrictions have been imposed on working in shows or movies. All for diplomatic reasons. Three years ago, Arijit raised his voice for Pakistani artists at an event in Amirshahi. But this time, he had to apologize to a Pakistani actress.

Arijit went to perform his concert in Dubai. Mahira Khan came to listen to the singer’s music there. The Pakistani actress worked in India opposite Shah Rukh Khan in the film ‘Raees’. The film also has a song in Arijit’s voice, ‘Zalima’. Which is very popular. The actress was sitting on the VIP seat next to Arijit’s stage. Arijit did not recognize her when he saw her for the first time. After realizing it, Arijit introduced Mahira to the audience. Besides, he apologized for not recognizing her at first sight.

Arijit suddenly stopped while singing and said, “You might be surprised to hear this.” Well, I present the matter in a slightly different way. Are there any cameras? I had been trying to get to know her for a long time. After that, I remembered singing the song ‘Jalima’ for her. ” Mahira was sitting in a black dress. Hearing the singer’s words, she had a smile on her face. At the end, Arijit said, “Mahira Khan is sitting in front of me. Mahira herself sang and stood there while singing the song ‘Zalima’. But I didn’t recognize it. I am very sorry, ma’am.”
