“Special response, what do I tell you, we are getting in a way that we have never gotten before. I’ll tell you we went to England after 1.5 years, England gave us such a response, New York, Canada, North America they have given us such good response especially in Qawwalis. It feels like one Qawwali has proved to be a comeback for Qawwalis called Rashk e Qamar.”
