Rahat Fateh Ali Khan, who is in the midst of a controversy after a video featuring him beating up his student went viral on social media, has now claimed that Indians host their weddings abroad so they can invite Pakistani artistes to perform. Ever since the Uri attack back in 2016, there has been a blanket ban on Pakistani artistes performing in India. In a recent chat with YouTuber Adeel Asif, Rahat claimed that the Indian public wants artistes like him and Atif Aslam to perform at their weddings.
“Since we couldn’t travel to India, Indians… I would like to give them some credit, they started hosting their destination weddings in foreign countries because India does not allow Rahat Fateh Ali Khan, Shafqat Amanat Ali, Atif Aslam to come in and perform. (They said) We will host our weddings outside so they can come and perform,” the singer said.
