Talking about it, Sohail Ahmed said, “Whenever I talked about Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan in front of Diljit, he would lower his eyes and say, ‘I have never seen an artist like him, I have listened to music from around the world, but I cannot comprehend who he was—he was truly out of this world’. The Indian artists admire our poetry and culture; they say the poetry of Pakistan is unmatched, the old poetry that we used to have in our songs. They love our actors and singers and give respect to our musicians. Why do we believe that a star needs to go international to be recognized in Pakistan? Why can’t we respect our artists when they perform within our own country? I mean Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan had always been a star even when he used to sing in Lahore outside Data Darbar” Here is the link to the video:
