Indian singer and rapper AP Dhillon’s name recently became a top trend on Pakistani Twitter after news of possible concerts in Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad spread like wildfire on social media. However, the Brown Munde singer responded to the rumours, denying the news of any concerts scheduled to be held in Pakistan.
Screenshots from the Instagram stories of an account by the username of Junaid Ali Akbar answering questions about upcoming Pakistani concerts quickly went viral on Twitter, with the user stating, “We have a meeting with the government officials this weekend. Security is the last concern. Everything else is finalised.”

The singer later took to his social media to offer clarity on the matter, denying the news and asserting that the only concerts scheduled to take place are to be held in India and the United Kingdom. Dhillon wrote in a post, “We have been made aware that there are scammers announcing shows/concerts in countries other than India and the United Kingdom.”
He added further, “Outside the Takeover Tour in India and our UK tour in February, there have been no additional additional countries that have been confirmed for concerts by anyone on our team.”
Dhillon concluded with a word of caution, writing, “Please do not get scammed and only purchase tickets for shows that have been confirmed by us.”
Following the singer’s statement, hilarious reactions from disappointed fans took over the social media site, with one user wrting, “AP Dhillon missed his chance to eat Butt Karahi so he should be the one unhappy not Lahoris.”
