Renowned playback singer Adnan Sami took to his social media handle on Sunday and claimed that he met a group of Pakistani boys during his Azerbaijan trip, and they called him "lucky" to have left Pakistan on time. Sharing the anecdote, Sami wrote that he knew long back that this would be the state of the country.
Sami took to his X handle and wrote, "Met some very sweet Pakistani boys while walking on the beautiful streets of Baku, Azerbaijan… They said “Sir, You are very lucky.. You left Pakistan in good time.. We also want to change our citizenship…WE HATE OUR ARMY…They have destroyed our country!!" I replied “ I knew this long ago!" (sic)."
For those unversed, the Tera Chehra singer, who earlier held a Pakistani citizenship, came to India in 2001, and after a successful career in the country, he finally gave up the Pakistani passport and got an Indian citizenship in 2016.
Recently, he was in news after several netizens labelled him as a "Pakistani agent" post the ghastly terrorist attack in Pahalgam, that killed 26 people. Firing back with sarcasm, he wrote, "Haan… Abhi unkareeb woh dhamaakedaar information aapko udthi hui aaee gi!! Aapko Lift Karade gi!! Enjoy (sic)."
In the past, Sami had threatened to "expose" Pakistan on multiple occasions and he had also alleged injustice towards him by the authorities of the neighbouring country. When people accused him of moving to India due to financial gains, he had clarified, stating, "I’m a musician, not a politician."
He had also once revealed that his Indian citizenship application was rejected twice before it was finally approved in 2016.
