After Pulwama Attack, Indian banned all Pakistani artists. The ban imposed restrictions so much so that T-Series, an Indian music label went on to remove all tracks by Atif Aslam and Rahat Fateh Ali Khan from their YouTube channel.
The Indian music record label approximately lost more than a million subscribers after they removed Atif’s new song ‘Baarishein’ from their YouTube channel alongside other tracks. Later, T-Series again put back Atif’s track, perhaps in a bid to get back their subscribers.
Recently Atif Aslam shared how the ban had affected his income. “The main and vital source of my income has always been concerts… I recently did a concert in Nairobi and now there’s one planned for Mauritius.”
