He said, “Yes, I received movie offers (from India). I also received an offer for an album. But I didn’t understand their contract.”
“‘You can’t speak, you can’t talk about Kashmir, etc.’ I thought that a country that believes in the freedom of expression shouldn’t say such things. So I didn’t do that album,” elaborated Haq on the terms and conditions which made him turn down the offer.
Further speaking about the film offer, the ‘Nach Punjaban’ hitmaker recalled, “There’s a company called Eros, they offered a movie. The actress was Katrina Kaif.”
“My friends were after me, saying, ‘If you don’t want to do it, let us go!’” he remembered with a laugh. “But I didn’t want to do movies. They called me excitedly and they even said, ‘No one has ever refused us, but you have. No one has ever told us they don’t want to do (the film). We thought you’d come running.’”
When asked if there are any upcoming musical collaborations across the border, the singer disclosed, “It’s ongoing. I’ve (collaborated) with Gurdas Maan, he’s a favourite of mine.”
