then what the heck is doing on this show?! this show is the height of shoddiness!

Hello Sobia,
Well I agree that what Abhijeet said were wrong but some of the points he made were valid. Like Atif has a great voice no doubt on that but as a singer, I don't think he qualifies. Personally I like him as a musician but as a Singer, he doesn't have that. His voice quality is definitely a keep but his singing, as in sur, taal, all the things that are required to become a good singer, he doesnt have that. But that doesn't mean he is bad or he is not learning. I heard that he was learning how to sing, at least he is taking that effort to improve himself. I like him a lot, love his music, his lyrics, and his singing style. He definitely is good. Just needs to improve to be the best.

As for mussarat or Ustad Nusrat Fated Ali khan, well Abhijeet has no right to say such things but then again he has different opinion. Also it just really makes him the bad guy, not us. We shouldn't do such things just because another person is doing it. In Islam, that is not what we are taught, we shouldn't behave the same way another person behaves with us when it is negative. So let it be if some people don't like what we have to say but we should show them how it is done as good Pakistani citizens.

I would like to point out something on the Visa status with Proof that according to the Pakistani Visa processing, you need certain documents for application. One point I made sure was that and Invitation should be given by a business company or something for a day trip. you need proof of that...here is mine:
"Application requirements: (a) Original valid passport, plus one photocopy. (b) One application form. (c) Two passport-size photos. (d) Confirmed return/onward ticket. (e) Proof of sufficient funds for duration of stay. (f) Fee payable by cash or postal order only. (g) For business trips, a letter of invitation from a company in Pakistan." (http://www.learn4good.com/travel/pakistan_visa.htm). In the same link there is pointed out that at the moment, all the entries are being denied.

It was nice to meet you too Sobia and remember, try to be a good person even if the person in front of you is not. kyun ki hamari pehchan hamaray behavior pe hai. We shouldn't try to hurt our enemy, just like Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) treated his enemies with utmost respect. It is a sunnah for us as a Muslim and we should set an example as a Muslim and a Pakistani.

Rooj

PS: Jashne-e-Azadi mubarik ho!

I do agree with u like u said we can tell by someone's behavior u kno but anyways i just didnt like wat Abhijeet said i mean he's just always pickin on pakistani singers well anyways Rooj u take care n Allah Hafiz.

As far as I remember Abhijeet did concerts in Pakistan along with Alka . So if he is a saying that they r not allowed in Pakistan is not true. Indian singers and composers are doing most of the movie songs in Pakistan and also the sound tracks and songs for Pakistani dramas. So if India is welcoming Pakistani singers , Indian singers and actors are welcome there too. Most of the Paksitani people watch Indian movies and indian dramas all over the world giving them a big amount of money. Abhijeet has a big mouth and he should think before opening it and saying something. Thinks before u speak is perfect for him..I f SRK is not hiring him , I think he is doing the right thing.

He makes a couple of valid points.

1) There's a good supply of talent to be found within India.
2) Pakistan is not as open as India in terms of accepting foreigners or people of Indian origin.
That said,
1. Entertainment industry is not the platform to raise political issues. People all over the world have the right to entertain others as well as to be entertained. In a way, he answered his own question. if nobody else is bothered then why should he bother?
2. India is a democracy. Pakistan is not. Does Abhijeet want to get away from a democratic country and go to some other country which is under, say, a dictatorship/taliban/communistic rulers? If not, he should enjoy what a democracy gives him as well as let others enjoy what democracy gives them. He has a right to object. But then, he shouldn't expect that his word should be the final. In a democracy , people can differ. That's the beauty of it. But then, people cannot start presuming that the government act immediately just because a couple of people have radical ideas. It doesn't work that way.
3. If Abhijeet wants to see how tolerant people could be, with respect to people from other countries and other religions, he should pay a visit to US or UK. He will learn a thing or two regarding tolerance.
4. I have seen an episode of SRGMP 2008 where some of the contestants from Pakistan said that they visited a local police station for work permit related issues. It's the rule and they are abiding by it. Every country has it's own rules and India too functions in it's own way. They are not going to make new rules or break existing rules just because Abhijeet has some concerns .
5. If Abhijeet cares so much for other talented singers from India, he should promote them instead of promoting himself all the time.
6. Abhijeet is getting paid to judge. A duty in which he has miserably failed because of his blind love for Sanchita and his hatred for singers from across the border.

agree! Point by point!! He has really failed as a judge. And thank god he is done with reforming the entertainment system.😆 No wonder he is jobless these days. It's awesome that SRK doesn't want to use him anymore since he doesn't want to offend the large amount of Paki fans. Bollywood is just not for indians anymore. I would understand if bollywood only profited from indians but it doesn't. It has a very diversed group of audience. It's totally international which I think is amazing. With Abhijeet's mindset it would never prosper and be stuck in the same place for centruries!

For the first time someone has dared to say the truth........has said how things really are.
I Agree with Abhijeet Da for 100%. We should care and stick to our own India. Keep that national feeling!
Create chances for us...make India a better place. Hats off to Abhijeeta who has done what politicians should do!
I understand those from Pakistan with their comments but be honest you would do the same...in fact you are already doing this! How many Indians get a job or life in Pakistan. If will not make a fist and fight for our own rights and chances like Abhijeeta has done, we will soon be fighting for a place to live in either Chinesedominated nation or one dominated by Pakistanis.
One message for the Pakistanis: Try to make Pakistan a better place......you have all the means for it.
Dont take away our chances...!
THANK YOU ABHIJEETA and please dont mind the host cause she is all pro- besharmi-raja !
A Perfect example of how disgracefull people can be!

XX AngelXX,
You must be a ?Pakistani thats why my words hurt you!
Objectivity was lost😲?
Calling me a Rascist........I didnt judge by race or by religion but just by nation
and I dont think thats wrong!
We have Hindus and Muslims here living peaceful but its people like you creating tension.
You call yourself an "Angel".should it not be terrorist??
Instead of calling me B* try looking in the mirror!
Every country can discover their own TALENT .......do you need Indians to do that😉!
Just chill, man!
