Singer Adnan Sami called a social media user an "illiterate idiot" for questioning his Indian citizenship.
Singer Adnan Sami hit back at a social media user who questioned his Indian citizenship. Recently, a netizen took to his X (formerly Twitter) handle and asked if the singer will also be sent back to Pakistan since Union Home Minister Amit Shah has asked all Chief Ministers to ensure that no Pakistani national remains in India after the Pahalgam terror attack.
'What about Adnan Sami?" the user asked, reacting to which, Adnan Sami said, 'Who's going to tell this illiterate idiot." Check it out here:
Not just this, another Pakistani user mocked the singer and wrote, 'Adnan, bhai. Koi masla nhn, aap Pakistan mat aao. Fawad bhai ko chodo—aap ko abhi bohot information gather karni hai?" Adnan Sami reacted to this and wrote, 'Haan… Abhi unkareeb woh dhamaakedaar information aapko udthi hui aaee gi!! Aapko Lift Karade gi!! Enjoy."
Haan… Abhi unkareeb woh dhamaakedaar information aapko udthi hui aaee gi!! Aapko Lift Karade gi!! Enjoy!!😉 https://t.co/S6GjlmIaF9 — Adnan Sami (@AdnanSamiLive) April 26, 2025
In 2016, Adnan Sami obtained Indian citizenship, and since then, he and his family have resided in Mumbai. Previously, while talking to the BBC, the singer had said that he felt threatened in Pakistan. He was more worried about his family's safety than his own. After a long battle with the Pakistani government, Adnan Sami filed a petition for Indian citizenship and in 2016 he became an Indian citizen.
Adnan Sami's career spans decades, with his first single Run for His Life reaching No. 1 on Middle Eastern music charts in 1986. He has collaborated with notable artists like Asha Bhosle and released several successful albums, including 'Kabhi To Nazar Milao" and 'Tera Chehra". Adnan Sami is known for songs like Tera Chehra, Lift Karadey, Tere Binam Teri Yaad, Mahiya, Baarish, Pal Do Pal and Nain Se Naino Ko Mila among others.

Ananya Panday Calls Herself A ‘3/10 Actor' In Viral Video; Reddit Trolls Her Brutally
Last Updated: Ananya Panday called herself a 3/10 actor in a resurfaced video, sparking viral trolling and heated PR debates on Reddit and social media. A throwback video of Ananya Panday rating herself as an actor has resurfaced on Reddit and is going viral for all the wrong reasons. The clip, from a rapid-fire segment on Pinkvilla, features Ananya playfully struggling to rate her own acting skills. Initially hesitant, she says, 'I can't do this… Like a 3… How can I rate myself as an actor?" Her Call Me Bae co-stars Niharika Dutt and Muskkaan Jaferi try to lift her spirits, nudging her to rate herself higher. Eventually, Ananya settles on a 7 out of 10. While her response seemed candid and humorous, the internet didn't take it lightly. Redditors quickly latched onto the video, calling out what they described as another PR move. One user wrote, 'The thing is, it's actually working. People do sympathise with her. All the Insta girlies unite to defend her in any reel criticising her. Unfortunately." Another added, 'Nepotism or no nepotism—if you are focused on winning PR games instead of working on your craft, people won't watch you." A third user sarcastically chimed in, 'Even my 2-month-old can see through these PR tricks. At least be clever about it." The viral backlash has reignited debates around nepotism and image-building in Bollywood, with many questioning whether such self-deprecating moments are genuine or calculated. On the work front, Ananya Panday is gearing up for her next big release, Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri, co-starring Kartik Aaryan. The romantic comedy is already making waves, especially after the makers revealed the release date—February 13, 2026—along with a romantic poster showing the duo kissing behind an Indian passport. The film, directed by Satyaprem Ki Katha's Sameer Vidwans, is being jointly produced by Dharma Productions and Namah Pictures. It also marks Kartik Aaryan's return to Karan Johar's production house following their much-publicised fallout during Dostana 2. Fans are excited to see Kartik and Ananya reunite after their successful pairing in Pati Patni Aur Woh (2019), making this one of the most awaited rom-coms on the horizon.
