Atif faces chaos at recent Karachi concert

On Monday night, Atif Aslam participated in and performed at an event called the Azadi Concert at the Governor's House in Karachi ahead of Pakistan's Independence day on August 14th.

But his performance was marked by crowd chaos as hundreds of youngsters flocked to the Sindh Governor House from early evening to watch him perform at the Maarka-i-Haq Independence Day celebrations.

When Atif began his set, the crowd sang along, but the concert was abruptly halted during his Jal Pari performance after overcrowding at the front made several girls uncomfortable. Atif demanded the organisers address the situation, leading to a 20-minute disruption and many attendees leaving before the show resumed.
