Earlier, Ghulam Ali’s concert was cancelled by organizers on Wednesday, following threats by Shiv Sena. He was scheduled to perform today at Shanmukhanand Hall at Matunga, Mumbai.
”Such controversies spoil people’s ‘sur’(note). I am not angry, I am hurt. In love, such things don’t happen,” he said. “Atmosphere is not conducive for me to perform at the moment,” said Ghulam Ali.
After such a maltreatment of cultural ambassadors in a country boasting itself to be at par with modern trends, Arvind Kejriwal had extended his support to Ghulam Ali inviting him to stage a concert in Delhi.
