He is probably the only artist who has been dragged between the India-Pak wars. Being the child of a Pakistan Air Force fighter pilot, he has been trolled by Pakistanis and Indians alike.<\/p>\n<h3>Forgotten Roots<\/h3>\n<p>While both the nations have labeled him a spy of the opposing country, Adnan Sami has faced some serious problems in India due to the media backlash. He allegedly had trouble finding a home in Mumbai not too long ago.<\/p>\n<p>Despite all the allegations and doubts, the 46-year-old singer secured his Indian citizenship back in 2016. Although it seems in doing so, he has forgotten his roots and cultural values. No lessons were taken out of his father&#8217;s time as a soldier.<\/p>\n<p>In a recent interview, when asked about the religiously biased laws of the country, he claimed that they do not exist. He claims that the CAA is for the betterment of India and its citizens.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>As a Muslim, I feel safe in India. Citizenship Amendment Act is for fast-tracking people wanting citizenship and is not for Indians in India.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>He was also asked to give his opinion on the claims made by Aamir Khan&#8217;s wife that she does not feel safe in India. A few years back, Aamir&#8217;s wife had created quite a controversy on social media, but Adnan Sami says being a Muslim has nothing to do with it.<\/p>\n<p>Adnan says he feels safe in India and apparently would not have it any other way.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>I am not here to answer whatever Aamir Khan has to say. As far as I am concerned, I am a Muslim. I respect all religions, I celebrate all religions. I celebrate humanity in whichever form it comes. I had so many options, but if I felt that I wanted to come to India, being a Muslim doesn\u2019t that say something about how secure I would feel.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3>An Indian First<\/h3>\n<p>Not only has he denied the existence of tensions among the civilians, he also seems like a die-hard Trump supporter.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Full Version of \u2018Welcome To India <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/POTUS?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@POTUS<\/a>\u2019&#8230;\ud83c\uddee\ud83c\uddf3\ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8\ud83e\udd18\ud83d\ude04<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/TrumpInIndia?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#TrumpInIndia<\/a>  <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/NamasteyTrump?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#NamasteyTrump<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/TrumpIndiaVisit?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#TrumpIndiaVisit<\/a> <\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/JjQIxg9xUq\">pic.twitter.com\/JjQIxg9xUq<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Adnan Sami (@AdnanSamiLive) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AdnanSamiLive\/status\/1231854857784422402?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 24, 2020<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Either that, or he really does not want to lose his credibility as an Indian.

I request everyone to talk and maintain peace. I request everyone to respect life and there is nothing that conversation can sort out all issues. I request people to bring peace in the country.
