MNS seek to cancel Shafqat Amanat Ali's concert in Mumbai in wake of URI attack

Mumbai, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News – 28th September, 2016) : Pouring some oil over the already burning political upheaval between the two countries India and Pakistan, Vishwa Hindu Parishad and Bajrang Dal have issued a letter to the Bangalore police addressing the coming concert of the Pakistani singer Shafqat Amanat Ali and demanding its ban to be performed in the city on Wednesday, September 30, 2016.

Lead vocalist of the pakistani rock band Fuzon, Shafqat Amanat Ali Khan is a renowned Pakistani classical singer. In 2008, he was awarded the President’s Pride of Performance civil award. acknowledging the attack on artists from Pakistan in India,a latest statement has been issued by Ali on Facebook saying, “I am repeatedly being asked questions on this today by media in both #India and #Pakistan, so here is what I would like to share with you all – It is a very sad and tough time for the people of both the countries.” He added saying, “I think the artists’ fraternity should not be involved in these matters as all artists are only about spreading peace and love and bringing people closer.

” As a backwash of URI attack, threats are continuously being issued by MNS in Mumbai to all the Pakistani actors currently doing their respective jobs here to leave the country .

a demonstration was also held outside the residence of Karan Johar, a Bollywood director against the casting of fawad Khan (pakistani Actor) in his next movie 'ae dil hai mushkil'. MNS vice-president Shalini Thackeray said that a full stop would be marked on the shootings of all the films and tv serials including Pakistani actors in their cast.

grave vengeance has lead India to make all the efforts in order to single out Pakistan globally after the URI attack occurred.Such protests and bans have also been witnessed by Shiv sena and MNS earlier in the past regarding the casting of Pakistani actors in Indian movies and players as well.

the events included the concert of Ghulam Ali and T20 match between the two rivals being cancelled in wake of the animosity by certain Indian political parties.
