Singer Mika Singh, who is a self-confessed fan of Pakistani singer Ghulam Ali, says he felt bad that the ghazal maestro's performance here got cancelled.
"I had a show in Delhi and Ghulam Ali came for my show. I felt bad that his show got cancelled because I feel music has no language. It's a political call so, I can't comment much, but I personally love Ghulam Ali and his songs," Mika told IANS.
"I often perform in Pakistan. Last year also I performed there," he added.
This was the second time that the renowned singer's concert has been cancelled in the city. The "Hangama hai kyon barpa" crooner's concerts in Mumbai and Pune were called off in October last year after the Shiv Sena threatened to disrupt his live performance.
Meanwhile, Mika is all set to judge the singing talent reality TV show "Sa Re Ga Ma Pa".
"This show is coming after four years. It is the first singing reality show also the number one show. I feel it's a great platform for many aspiring singers," he added.
Zee Tv's Amul "Sa Re Ga Ma Pa" powered by Flipkart and driven by Hyundai will go on air on March 26.
