Pakistani Music is the New Craze in India

Harvinder Singh of Planet M says, ”Pakistani music cassettes sell like hot cakes and sometimes we get out of stock as well. These days Ali Zafar is on everybody’s lips and still one can see the craze for Pakistani band Junoon.” For ghazal lovers the craze is for Tahira, Iqbal Bano and Abida Parveen. A salesman of Music World revealed, ”We are selling numerous Pakistani albums and these days Fakhir is on the hot list. And mostly people aging between 20-30 years go for this kind of music.” The most popular bands and singers available on these stores are Ali Azmat, Fakhir, Abida Parveen, Tahira, Iqbal Bano and Junoon. Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan is an all time favourite, says Harvinder Singh.
