September 13, 2015

Dubai, Sep 13: Indian and Pakistani singers Sonu Nigam and Atif Aslam paired up to perform here in a five-hour concert, a media report said.

The singers shared the stage at the World Trade Centre in Dubai on Thursday night proving that art has no boundaries and despite their respective countries being at loggerheads, their hearts are the same beyond borders, Gulf News reported on Saturday.

To show mutual admiration, Nigam sang songs by Pakistani legends Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan and Reshma while Aslam sang songs by Mohammad Rafi, Kishore Kumar and Jagjit Singh.

Moreover, Nigam performed songs sung by Aslam and Atif reciprocated with Nigam's chartbusters.

Aslam performed first and began the concert with Bollywood hits that included "Woh lamhe woh baatein", "Tu chahiye" and some Sufi songs.

Nigam switched gears by following him with songs like "Mera rang de basanti" and "Don't say alvida".

Nigam's rendition of "Shukran Allah" as a mark of respect for the UAE martyrs who lost their lives in Operation Restoring Hope in Yemen, was followed by a two-minute silence.

Popular Bhojpuri actor Amrita Pandey was found dead in her apartment in Bihar's Bhagalpur last week on April 27, the police said. The cops suspect the actor, 27, died by suicide but the matter is under investigation.

The police said she posted a cryptic WhatsApp status before her death, which read, "Do naav me savaar thi uski zindagi, humne apni naav duba ke uska safar aasaan kar diya" (His/her life was sailing on two boats, we made the journey easy by sinking one). The cops have not recovered any suicide note. She is survived by her husband.

Amrita's family said she worried about her career as she was not getting enough work and was suffering from depression. The family said she was undergoing treatment for depression.

The actor lived in Mumbai with her husband, Chandramani Jhangad, an animation engineer. She went to Bhagalpur to attend her sister's wedding on April 18. Her husband returned home after the wedding but Amrita chose to stay back.

The actor has been alongside Bhojpuri star Khesari Lal Yadav in 'Deewanapan'. She also acted in Hindi movies, TV shows and web series. She is also known for her role in the web series 'Parishodh'.

City Superintendent of Police, Shri Raj, said we will conduct a high-level investigation into this case. A team has been formed, the family members are being interrogated and further action is underway in the case.
