Pakistan’s Sufi queen Abida Parveen said she will perform a concert in Bombay to boost peace efforts between India and Pakistan.

“Music knows no boundaries,” said Parveen, known for her musical renderings of Urdu poets such as Aamir Khusro, Kabeer and Bulesha.

“I’m happy I will be performing in this city for the first time and pass on the message of peace to my Indian brothers and sisters.”

“If a person stands on the border of India and sings, then no way his voice can be stopped from travelling into Pakistan.”
