Mahesh Bhatt has approached singer Shafqat Amanat Ali to sing for his upcoming play

After last year’s Uri attack no artist from Pakistan has performed in India, but now Mahesh Bhatt has approached singer Shafqat Amanat Ali to sing for his upcoming play ‘Milne Do.’

According to sources, Shafqat won’t visit India for the play, but will be recording in Pakistan.

Mahesh Bhatt says that the play is on “cross border peace and is an initiative to revive the cultural ties that were completely eroded after the extreme positions, decisions taken by both countries post the Uri attack,” and will be staged in Delhi and Mumbai in June.

Shafqat, who will sing a song for the play, stated “Bhatt saab got in touch with me two weeks ago. The reason for saying yes to it is very simple. It’s a project on peace. There are differences between the two countries which have caused a rift and that needs to be ironed out. This project is a step in that direction. Due to my tight schedule, I won’t be travelling to India and will be recording in Pakistan.”

He further said, “The ban on Indian films has been lifted in Pakistan and people here watched Kaabil, Raees and a couple of other movies very enthusiastically. My song for Bhatt saab’s project is another step in the direction of bringing things back to normal. I have also got offers for shows and movies from India.”
