Still out of tune: Goher Mumtaz doubles down on criticism of Farhan Saeed
Goher Mumtaz and Farhan Saeed seem to be engaged in an absurd online war, with Goher recently doubling down on his criticism of Farhan. In the wake of Goher's recent interview, where he was seen candidly criticising his former bandmate, Farhan shared a video of himself performing for various crowds, expressing gratitude for his fans. However, Goher took to his Instagram Story to offer a response, stirring the pot with remarks about Farhan's vocal abilities.
The post in question featured Farhan showcasing snippets of his performances with a caption that read, "My average life! I love you all." While the post seemed like a heartfelt acknowledgement of his fanbase, Goher took the opportunity to address what he perceives as lingering concerns about Farhan's singing skills.
In his Instagram Story, Goher, referring to Farhan as a younger brother, began by acknowledging the positive aspects of the video and expressing respect for Farhan as a friend and brother. However, he did not mince words when it came to addressing the issue that has seemingly been brewing between them.
Goher recalled an earlier interview where he asserted that Farhan was a weak singer and left their band, Jal, because he aspired to be like Atif Aslam. The guitarist and vocalist revealed that Farhan lacked confidence and was out of tune when initially hired to sing Aadat as a replacement. He also took a jab at Farhan's recent Instagram post.
Goher penned, "So my brother Farhan posted this clip with a great caption. You are a younger brother...but still...I have to tell you. I respect you as a friend and brother. I say things in all honesty and on a lighter note, in an interview, when asked that why always a 'vocalist' leaves a band as you you were hired in Jal to sing Aadat as a replacement. At that time you were not confident, out of tune to sing Aadat...nothing more than that...also thanks for you have uploaded to show off. The PGC crowd...but somebody should tell you before posting this video on your page that you are still out of tune in these clips...Love you and your fans too...That too 'all.'"
The remarks made by Goher added fuel to the fire, as he not only questioned Farhan's vocal abilities but also suggested that the Instagram post was an attempt to "show off." Goher concluded his statement with a touch of sarcasm, expressing love for Farhan and his fans, while emphasising the word "all." This public exchange comes on the heels of Goher's earlier interview where he openly shared his grievances about Farhan's departure from Jal. The guitarist had claimed that Farhan wanted to emulate Atif Aslam and cited these differences as the reason for the band's breakup.
As fans eagerly await Farhan's response, this social media feud adds an unexpected layer of drama to the narrative of two once-collaborative musicians turned public adversaries. Only time will tell whether this online clash will escalate or if the two will find a way to reconcile their differences behind the scenes.
