Hey Ali,

Just wanted to share that your London Mega show 2008 was fantastic, it was my birthday and i was really moody about doing anything (as i generally am on birthdays) however i was extremly glad to have turned up, they say “you save the best to last” on this il say..this was truely the case for your performance, the atmosphere was full of life, your performance which was much anticipated by many..was definitely worth its while, great to listen to and even better to watch!! Thank you for making it a wonderful night for many, including me..

All the best for your upcoming shows and events

Myself and my Husband did not stop rocking till the end!! Thank you so much for being such a fantastic artist, you truly did justice to yourself singing live! LOVED IT!!
Keep up the good work with this website this has got to be one of the best of not THE BEST artist website I have come across- The reason why you have so much luck is because you appreciate your fans around and we respect you for that. You give the love back because it is your fans that make you…

Hey Ali! I’ve just joined ur website recently after watching ur performance in London..truly won my heart! itz fab 2 c tht u have some really dedicated fans here..n the blogs r pretty interesting 2 read..ppl r totally crazzzzzzy about U!!! lyk wow!!

btw i was wondering y the majority of music in pk is along the lines of pop, rock and country..i hvnt heard any r’n'b music from artists in pakistan which is surprising as it’s highly popular in the west..just a random thought…i think it would b kwl if sum1 could experiment with music of that genre..it would be something new i suppose..:)

Zoya said:

heyyy
lol
oh nice.. some show or what?
i’m done with exams yay lol
well, read u laters (haha tht sounds funny)


Ali said:

hey sweet lil fan . it’s ok if your brother doesn’t like me . everyone has his own likes and dislikes and point of views . I wish i had a sister . I believe your family should always be on the highest level of respect from your side and we must accept them with their flaws . From now on try something … even if your brother fights with you , show him love and dont fight back .. then see the magic .
And no, i dont smoke . i highly detest the act and just wish one day it goes into extinction globally .


wannabe said:

hi ali,
and hello everyone else.
gosh! sounds like you have had quite a long trip if you have only just got back from mumbai!…hope you enjoyed yourself. it would be nice if you could tell us a little about it in your next post. i have never been to india ….but would love to go someday, actually i am planning a trip to pakistan… but i think this time of year is really warm…and with the load shedding etc i hear about in the media i am kind of thinking twice about it……i think the end of february seems to be a really nice time of year to come back and visit..
anyway… hope you are in good health…ehhhmmmm…. and any news on the marriage front that you might like to share with us?

take care
wannabe


ambreen7 said:

Salaam Ali!

How are you doing? Hope you are in good spirits inshaAllah. Hey I will be you sister, you can adopt me! I am just kidding-but I can totally relate as I have two sisters and no brother, it would have been nice to have a brother. Also it does not help when you tell Pakistanis that we are just 3 sisters, and they go bhai ney hai? I usually don’t respond at that point- anyway take care- cannot wait to see your AAG video!

Ambreen
