  • Ghulam Ali's Concert At Lucknow Mahotsava On: Official
Pakistani ghazal singer Ghulam Ali, who on Wednesday announced he was cancelling all his scheduled concerts in India, will, however, go ahead with his performance at the Lucknow Mahotsava later this month, a top official said on Thursday.
 
Lucknow district magistrate Raj Shekhar told IANS that the organising committee members contacted the singer's programme coordinators and they confirmed that while other concerts were off, the event in Lucknow was very much on.
