Pakistani government did not allow him to attend mother's funeral
In fact, adnan sami recently appeared in Rajat Sharma's show Aap Ki Adalat. Here he talked about one of his personal moments. When asked if he tried to go to pakistan after becoming an indian citizen in 2016, Adnan revealed that he tried to go to pakistan to attend the funeral of his mother after her death in october 2024. He said that his mother's death was no less than a shock for him as she did not have any health problems. Adnan said that the indian authorities were kind and immediately understood the gravity of the situation and allowed him to go but the pakistan government rejected his visa application.
With a heavy heart, he recalled the painful sequence of events and said, "I applied for a visa and told them that my mother had passed away. Still, they refused. I could not go. I watched the entire funeral through whatsapp video call."
Did Adnan choose indian citizenship for money?
The singer also talked about the claim that Adnan chose indian citizenship for financial gain. He clarified that money was never the reason for this. Because he came from an affluent family and never faced financial struggles. Instead, he stressed that his decision was driven by personal growth and artistic fulfillment. Adnan said he left behind crores of property in pakistan to start afresh in India, where he felt a stronger connection with his audience and saw more opportunities to grow as an artist..jpg)
