Fans are praising Shehnaaz Gill after she paused and delayed her performance at a Mumbai event when she heard Azaan.
Shehnaaz Gill was on stage recently, about to sing when she heard the Azaan call and delayed her performance in respect. Ever since the video from the Mumbai event surfaced online, fans have been praising her for her sensitivity. She attended the event Wednesday evening.
In the video, Shehnaaz can be seen receiving her award for Lokmat Digital Personality of Year before Siddharth Kannan asked her to sing a few lines. “It feels so nice.
No one else deserved this award better than you. Please sing a few lines, just anything. Whatever you have in your heart, just sing those few lines. Your fans are waiting eagerly for you to sing. I have requests saying people won’t eat unless Shehnaaz sings.”
“Should I sing an unreleased song?” Shehnaaz wondered at first. However, when asked to do so, she stated, “That is not possible. No, I’ll sing an already-released song.” She was about to begin when she heard the Azaan (prayer call) and paused, her head bowed in respect. She only began singing after the Azaan.
Shehnaaz’s fans flooded the internet with comments praising her. “Love love love she’s everything a fan could ever dream of how their idols should be super proud!” one of them wrote. “My girl #ShehnaazGill is pure soul, lots of love and respect for her, so nice of her not to sing during #Azaan prayers,” said another.
Shehnaaz Gill waited before performing inspite of being insisted at the Lokmat Digital Creator Awards 2023 when she heard the sound of #Azaan.
