Pak PM is Lata s biggest fan
Subhash K Jha, Aug 9, 2010, 10.19am IST
Bharat Ratna Lata Mangeshkar has been extended an invitation to visit Pakistan as a state guest by Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani.
It is an honour very few are truly worthy of. Our very own Lata tai has been invited to fly to Pakistan to meet the Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani. If things go as planned, she would soon be sitting, in all her glory, with the crème-de-la-crème of the Pakistani PMs office.
As it turns out, a very persuasive invitation for Lataji to visit our neighbouring country has come from none other than the Pakistani Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani himself.
During a dinner meeting with singer Adnan Sami in Islamabad last week (which Mumbai Mirror reported recently), Gilani raised the question of Latajis long-pending visit. She owes it to her fans in Pakistan, which includes me, the Pakistani PM apparently told Adnan.
He then suggested that Adnan personally bring her to Pakistan as the countrys state guest.
Obviously, if Lataji visits Pakistan soon, cultural ties between the two countries would go to another level.
Confirming the invitation from Pakistans PM, Adnan says, Yes, Gilani saab has invited Lataji through me. He is a huge fan of hers. So is Nawaz Sharif for that matter.
As per Adnans account, during his dinner last week in Islamabad, Gilani could not stop singing Latajis evergreen melodies. It was after that session that the PM extended the invitation for Lataji to Adnan.
Says Adnan, Lataji has been invited as a state guest to Pakistan. I will personally escort her and will make sure she is looked after properly like a Bharat Ratna should be. Lataji is a national treasure not only in India but also in Pakistan. Just the thought of her visit has filled Pakistani people with a feeling of elation. She must go there. I will make sure it happens.
While Lataji is yet to take a call on this invitation, the long-standing desire of the Pakistanis to have her amongst them for just one visit, is now on its way to fulfillment.
