Adnan Sami’s BEST reply to trolls who questioned him for getting the Padma Shri

Singer-composer Adnan Sami was recently awarded the Padma Shri award for his services in the field of art. He took to his Twitter handle to thank the government for recognising and conferring him with the fourth highest civilian honour of the country. While some congratulated the singer on his achievement, a section of social media users questioned his lineage and citizenship.

Today, at the song launch event of ‘Tu Yaad Aya’, when Adnan was asked about the haters who trolled or criticised him for getting the Padma Shri, he said, “Theek hain unko agar pasand nahi aaya. Maine unko maaf kar diya” (If they didn’t like it, it’s ok. I have forgiven them). He also said, “It’s ok when a handful of people didn’t like it. The rest 1.3 billion are happy about it, toh jo haters hain unko side main karo.”

While talking about the award he said that he has been given the responsibility to try and do even more and better in his field.
