Some artists of Pakistan also gave their reactions on social media criticizing Javed Sahab. The name of Pakistani singer and actor Ali Zafar is also included in these celebs. But now, days after criticizing Javed Akhtar, Ali Zafar has praised Bollywood’s legendary late actor Dilip Kumar.
Amazed and in awe of Dilip Kumar sahab’s singing skills. This is live. Hear the vocal texture, the sur, lagao, expression. He could’ve done his own playback but I think being a perfectionist didn’t feel was something he should do. People close to him can share more on it I guess. pic.twitter.com/YkLIadVKLZ
