30.04.2024: During a recent concert in Dubai, renowned Bollywood singer Arijit Singh found himself in a sweet yet slightly embarrassing moment when he failed to recognize Pakistani actress Mahira Khan among the attendees. Singh was performing at the event, delivering an enchanting rendition of the song “Zaalima” from the film “Raees,” not realizing that Mahira Khan, the actress on whom the song was picturized, was seated in the front row.
In a video that has since gone viral on social media, Arijit Singh can be seen acknowledging his oversight on stage, saying, “You guys must be surprised, should I reveal? I should reveal in a very nice way. Can we have the camera there? I have been trying to recognize this person, then remembered I have sung for her. Ladies and gentlemen, Mahira Khan sitting right in front of me.” He expressed his regret, offering a heartfelt apology, “I am so sorry. Ma’am gratitude and thank you so much.”
Mahira Khan, known for her graceful presence, smiled at Singh’s endearing gesture and waved at the audience. The incident added a charming touch to the concert, showcasing the humility and warmth of both artists.
On another note, Mahira Khan recently tied the knot with businessman Salim Karim, sharing glimpses of her wedding celebrations on social media. The actress looked stunning in a pastel lehenga with matching diamond jewelry, while Salim looked dashing in a black sherwani and blue turban. Prior to this marriage, Mahira was married to Ali Askari, with whom she shares a 13-year-old son named Azlan.
In her upcoming projects, Mahira Khan will be seen alongside Fawad Khan and Sanam Saeed in the Netflix series “Jo Bachay Hain Sang Samait Lo,” promising an exciting venture for her fans.
